MIRRORS OF Jesus' LOVE

 

MIRRORS OF JESUS’ LOVE

 

Don’t you=JUST LOVE IT

When someone reaches out=to you

When someone=DOES SOMETHING KIND

For you

 

We give them thanks=when

They do this=for we

APPRECIATE THEM even more=for they are

MIRRORS of our ever KIND GOD=

MIRRORS OF JESUS’ LOVE

 

“We GIVE THANKS=to God always……..

Remembering you=in our PRAYERS

Unceasingly calling to mind your work=OF FAITH

And labor of love……”                                                                                                       1 Thessalonians 1:1:2-3

 

HOW PRECIOUS it is=to be

Like Jesus=how precious it is

To BE A MIRROR OF JESUS=even if

It is only for a little while

 

Be a REFLECTION=be a

MIRROR OF JESUS!

Do something KIND for

Someone else today

 

“Anyone who listens=to the word

But does not do=what it says

Is like someone

 

Who looks=at his face=IN THE MIRROR

And after=looking at himself=goes away

And immediately forgets=what he looks like”                                                                   James 1:23

 

YES=we are to be=A REFLECTION

Of God and Jesus=in this world

We are to see Jesus=IN

Every other human being=in this world

 

We are to=DO GOOD for others

And SHOW them=Jesus’ love=kindness=and grace

BE A MIRROR=OF JESUS’ LOVE=in this world

 

“It is a sin=to despise one’s neighbor

But blessed=is the one=WHO IS KIND

To the needy”                                                                                                            Proverbs 14:21

 

“Love is patient=LOVE IS KIND

It does not envy=it does not boast=it

Is not proud”                                                                                                                   1 Corinthians 13:4

 

So treat those=who are KIND TO YOU

As special human beings=in this life

TREAT THOSE MIRRORS=Of Jesus’ love

To you=with kindness back

 

Thank God for their GRACE=thank

God for=their FAITHFULNESS=and

PRAY FOR THEM=and that you

CAN continue to be KIND too

 

Try to BE A MIRROR=Of Jesus’ love

To all others=in this world

 

“HEAR MY PRAYER=Lord

Listen to my cry for mercy”                                                                                                        Psalm 86:6

 

“The Lord detests=the sacrifice

Of the wicked=BUT THE PRAYER=of the upright

Pleases him”                                                                                                                                        Proverbs 15:8

 

Dear Lord=we PRAY for those=who are

MIRRORS OF JESUS’ LOVE=in this world

 

And we PRAY=that we too

Can learn to be MESSENGERS

Of God’s and Jesus’ love

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER LIVING=and loving

Holy Father God of love and KINDNESS
