SEEING JESUS IN YOU
For the last eight months=it
Has been DIFFICULT to go to Church
Every weekend=let alone
Every day
I MISS seeing the FACE OF GOD
In CHURCH=and in
My brothers and sisters=IN CHRIST
This Corona virus=this pandemic
Has CREATED some
Important issues
For people of God =
Some very difficult issues
“Lord-this is the people-
That LONG to see your FACE” Psalm 24:6
One thing for sure=some day=
SOME WAY= we will all
Be able to WORSHIP
In CHURCH again=
With our brothers and sisters
But until that happens-
We watch Church on television=
On the computer=and we can
SEE THE FACE OF JESUS
In everyone of us
Seeing the face of Jesus
In our FAMILY=in our FRIENDS=
And even in those HARD WORKERS
In our stores=and our EMERGENCY
FRONT-line workers
We can also FIND JESUS
When we look in the mirror=
Looking back at us=
Jesus is in all of US!
SEEING THE FACE
Of Jesus-
In everyone of us
And in OURSELVES
“Look to the Lord
And his strength=
SEEK HIS FACE always” 1 Chronicles 16:11
“My heart says of you-
'SEEK HIS FACE'
Your face Lord=I seek” Psalm 27:8
“Therefore I have
Set my FACE LIKE FLINT
And I know-
I will not
Be put to shame” Isaiah 50:7
Dear Lord=we KNOW
That you love us
We pray that
We never take our CHURCH
Or our lives for granted
We pray that we will
Always SEEK YOUR FACE
In all people-
Including our very own selves
“But if from there
YOU SEEK-
The Lord your God
You will find him
If you SEEK him
With all your heart
And with all your soul” Deuteronomy 4:29
“I SEEK YOU
With all my heart=
Do not let me stray
From your commands” Psalm 119:10
Dear Lord=I love you
With ALL of my heart=and
All of my soul=I SEEK
To love all others that way too
Dear Lord=I SEEK to see Jesus
In all others=including myself
In Jesus' name=and in the name=of our FOREVER LOVING FATHER!
