“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?
