BE AWARE NOW=WHAT IS NEEDED
Did you ever hear
The famous QUOTE
Of Saint Teresa of Avila?
“Christ has NO BODY NOW
But yours=no hands=
No feet=but yours……..”
BE AWARE NOW=what
IS needed=we have
To be Jesus=for
Someone else=in this world
We have to HELP
Someone else get a LIFT
In their difficult times
If we can
“He approached=grasped her hand=
And HELPED her up”
Mark 1:31
This gesture of Jesus
HELPED Simon’s mother-in-law
To get up after
CURING her of a deadly fever
What LOVING GESTURE
Can we DO
To help someone get along
In this world?
BE AWARE NOW=
WHAT IS NEEDED
We are Jesus’
Hands and feet
In this world
“Be not like others=
For your Father knows
WHAT YOU NEED=
Before you ask him”
Matthew 6:8
“And sold their possessions
And goods
And parted them
To all men
As every man=HAD NEED”
Acts 2:45
“But who-
Has the world’s good
And sees his
BROTHER’S NEED
And shuts up
His bowels of compassion
From him
How does the love of God
Dwell in him?”
1 John 3:17
I wonder IF
We can think of some
Little thing=to HELP someone else
Maybe CARRY a bag of groceries
For a shut in
Or offer an arm or a hand
To the aged
Or someone=who just had surgery
We can all write
A NOTE OF ENCOURAGEMENT
To someone else
To give someone
A LITTLE HOPE
“Let us therefore
Come boldly
Into the throne of grace
That we may obtain mercy
And find grace
TO HELP=in time of NEED”
Hebrews 4:16
Let us BE AWARE NOW=
THAT WE ARE NEEDED
And BE
The hands and feet of Christ
To someone else=in today’s world
IN JESUS’ NAME
