“Christ Needs Us”
All good human relationships
Are based on 3 things
Respect, trust, and need
This is true of
Husbands and wives
Parents and their children
And friends for friends
And it is true
Of our relationship with Jesus Christ
Jesus doesn’t coerce us
Jesus doesn’t compel us
To obey him
He allows us
To be free
He does this
Because he loves us
And because he needs us
When he was alive
He needed people
And today
He needs us
More than ever
He needed his Mother Mary
To be born
He needed his Father Joseph
To provide for him
He needed John the Baptist
To baptize him
And he needed his Apostles
To teach the word of God to
And to spread his word
After he was gone
But the job
Is only ½ done
And it is up to us
To continue
The Great Commission
And to spread the word of God
All over the world
It is true
What the poet wrote
He has no hands
But your hands
He has no feet
But your feet
He has no lips
But your lips
And he has no love
But your love
I need God and Our Lord
In my life
I can’t imagine a day without him
But he needs us too
Jesus is our friend
How can we respond?
