IN OUR MIDST

 







IN OUR MIDST


What if our LIVING GOD-

JESUS=was walking in

The streets and towns

Of our very CITIES

In today's world?


Would our BEHAVIOR be any different?

I would HOPE so=How

Embarrassing it would be

If HE could see

The way=we actually behave

The way

THAT WE THINK


But he does SEE US=

He does see the

VERY THOUGHTS=of

And in our MINDS


“Shout with exultation........

For great in YOUR MIDST

Is the Holy One of Israel” Isaiah 12:6


What IF Jesus was in our midst?

What if he

Walked our shopping markets?

What if he

Could see us in our CHURCHES?

What if he

Walked SIDE BY SIDE

With us=at our job?


Oh the language=

He would hear=

Oh the behavior

He would see


But he does see and hear

IT ALL every day=

He is LIVING in our hearts=

He is living

In our minds=

HE KNOWS

Exactly what is going on


HE IS IN OUR MIDST!


He is living

In the here and now

He knows just

What is going on


He is in our HEARTS

And minds=

He is IN OUR MIDST


“And you-my son Solomon-

Acknowledge the God

Of your father


And serve him

With wholehearted devotion=

And with

A WILLING MIND


For the Lord

Searches every HEART

And understands

Every desire and thought” 1 Chronicles 28:9


“Test me Lord

And try me=

EXAMINE MY HEART

And my MIND” Psalm 26:2


HOW would our lives be different=

If we=

LIVED every moment

With the awareness

That Jesus is PRESENT

With us?


Our Holy loving God=

Our HOLY loving One

Is really in our MIDST

Right here-right now


He SHOULD BE on our MINDS=

If he Isn't


“Finally brothers and sisters=REJOICE!

Strive for full restoration-

Encourage one another-

Be of ONE MIND-

Live in peace


And the GOD of love and peace-

Will be with you” 2 Corinthians 13:11


ON the most ordinary

Of days=

IN the most routine

Of activities=

Our God is with us


He is=IN OUR MIDST!


In the name of Jesus=and of OUR EVER PRESENT HOLY LIVING FATHER
