![There is not a hint of one person who was afraid to draw near him [Jesus]. There were those who mocked him. There were those who were envious of him. There were those who misunderstood him. There were those who revered him. But there was not one person who considered him too holy, too divine, or too celestial to touch. There was not one person who was reluctant to approach him for fear of being rejected.](/assets/img/quote-photos/there-is-not-a-hint-of-one-person-who-was-afraid-to-draw-near-him-jesus-there.jpg)
