The face of the Christ
our Risen Savior
the One who gives us life
when we die with Him
who raises us up
on wings like eagles
who is preparing a place for
us
when He comes again
The face of Jesus
in the face of each stranger
everyone we meet
all made like us
the Master in the stranger
those who appear different
from us
yet all of us children
children of the Living God
Calling us to love
to share His message
to go to the ends of the
earth
making disciples in His name
how can we do this if
we focus on the differences
when we are all unworthy
and need Him to live

my comment posted to this post:
“This is a very powerful message and one that needs
repeating. We as Christian deny Christ when we do not live out the Great
Commission by creating barriers, stumbling blocks to Christ. We must be sowing
joy, not judgment, love not division, hope not condemnation, agape love not the
values of the world. Only in this are we fulfilling our call, using our gifts
for God's glory.”
