I haven't wrote in a few weeks and this time I'm happy to say its not because I've had bad distractions. Not this time. This time I have been serving and seeking the Lord and had to take a break from my phone. As much as I love my phone too much of it can drive me nuts!
I have wanted to share so much over the past weeks though. Tonight as I lay in bed the one thing that's heavy on my heart is the lost and broken.
Again as I have sought out the Father He has put me in a place where I am able to spend some time with the hurting. Who am i, that God would want me to be His hands and feet. I have been reflecting on Jesus and His ministry here on earth and how He loved everyone. He touched the blind, the leper, the deaf and the sinner. He fed the poor and ate with the tax collectors.
Sometimes as believers we are so blessed by God that we forget what we are truly placed here on earth to do. We forget that we are called to love the lost and not judge them. We are called to feed the poor and not shy away from them thinking in our head "they are poor because of their choices". We are called to put our faith in Christ to action.
As I reflect how blessed I am I can't lose the memory of where I once was. I was poor, I was lost and I was broken. It was Christ who made me whole. It is Christ who meets my needs and its because of HIM that I have been found. I don't ever want to be in a place where I look at people through the eyes of the Pharisees. They were the ones Jesus rebuked ya know.
Sweet friends there are hundreds of hurting people who don't know Christ and are on their way to hell. May we ask the Lord to be broken for what breaks His heart and may we ask the Lord for the love that He has for the lost and poor.
Take these words in love because they came from my heart. Everyday is a new opportunity to show Gods love to the people He came to save. 💙
Who am i that the Lord of all the earth would want me to be His hands and feet.
