Jesus was teaching when His family showed up and wanted to speak to Him. Someone told Jesus that His mother and siblings were there, and He said something weird. Check it out.
“And he answered them, “Who are my mother and my brothers?” And looking about at those who sat around him, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! For whoever does the will of God, he is my brother and sister and mother.”” - Mark 3:33-35, ESV.
In our culture, that would be considered rude or even an insult. You don't treat your family like that in the Southern United States. Your mom would literally slap the naps off your head. And if she didn’t, your dad would put a size 11 on your backside and say, “Boy, don’t you ever disrespect our family. Do you hear me, or do I need to kick you again?”
But Jesus would never disrespect them. Understand that Jesus wasn’t excluding His family. He was including others in it. He considered everyone who joined Him in doing the will of God to be family. His family may have taken it as an insult, but that is only because they did not yet realize what He was doing. Later on, at least some of them got it.
The point is, if you are carrying out the cause of Christ, glorifying God by sharing the gospel of salvation, you can have a close relationship with Jesus, unless you do so in vain. Stick to the will of God. Stay in the family. And don't disrespect it! God-sized boots hurt. - Pastor Mike
