Something Special about the Guest – v18

There was something worth remembering
in the action of this stranger
something special about the guest;
Seeking Christ where He was
then going to the Master

Boldly going, entering in
an uninvited guest
approaching the Master;
Seeking healing, wholeness
care from the Lord

In our lives, in our ministry
continuing Christ’s labors
out into the world;
Our gifts are being given
used for God’s purpose

Seeing the uniqueness
the needs of each stranger
opening our hearts to them;
Being open as He was
wherever we find them

Sharing the love of God
to all whom we meet
in the church, on the street;
Being the light in the world
Christ’s hands and His feet
