Day 26 Advent count down and beyond! In His Word 12-26-2023
Today I start with a challenge! You have no doubt spent a
lot of time with coworkers or family this week. Take a moment to look at them
through God’s eyes, not just the tainted eyes of a human. We humans tend to see
people by who they appear to be on the outside. They are cranky, grumpy, or
cheery, or full of celebration on the outside; who are they really?
Prior to Jesus going to heaven after the cross, I know that’s
a jump from celebrating His birth yesterday, but reality is He walked the earth
like a man and people saw Him as a man. Then when He rose again they saw Him as
He is!
We as Christians who believe in Jesus as the Christ have
been given a new life, a new outlook on life but sometimes we forget to look at
people through the love eyes that Jesus looks at us through. We judge them
before we need to but that is not what Jesus wants from us. He wants us to see
potential believers, potential healing,
potential joy in people and we have the answer that they seek.
Today let’s look at one another with the love of God in our
heart shining and not judging them, but helping the to find healing, joy,
health, happiness, wholeness in Christ.
So ,we have stopped evaluating others from a human point of
view. At one time we thought of Christ merely from a human point of view. How
differently we know him now! This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has
become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! And all of
this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God
has given us this task of reconciling people to him. 2 Corinthians 5:16-18
Thank God that He saw you through Potential! In His love.
