John 14:9– “Jesus saith unto him, ‘Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?’”
Hearing songs like, “My Father’s Eyes” and “Let Me Be Like You”, remind us that the songwriters were inspired by the desire to see the lost from God’s perspective.
I’m sure you have heard the phrase “Be the Hands and Feet of Jesus”…fulfill the great commission. If one sees a sister or a brother in need, help them as Jesus would.
We should live our lives in such a way that others see Christ living in us. Our speech and actions should reflect those of our Heavenly Father.
What a privilege it is for us to be the hands and feet of Jesus, as His representatives, here on earth…to do the work he has left us to do. To spread love, mercy, and kindness wherever we go.
Have you ever met someone who just “glows” with the radiance of Christ’s love? I ‘d like to be that someone. How about you?
With the power of the Holy Spirit working within us, we can be. As we let Him control our lives and actions, we will be.
It goes deeper than a beautiful smile. It is the outward radiance of our inward relationship with the Father—living in such a way that others recognize the Father’s presence when they are around us.
As ambassadors for Christ, we can show His love by actions that are worthy of calling ourselves Christians…Christ followers…earthy representatives of our Heavenly Father.
There’s someone out there who needs a helping hand or a word of encouragement today.
Maybe they need to hear the gospel.
When our paths cross, let’s make sure that when they see us, they see The Father.
