Reflect Jesus

Monday morning. Another week is beginning. Why is August flying by so fast? School is starting. Routines are continuing. Life goes on.

Funny how fast time goes by when you get older. Every year seems to spin away into oblivion and all that is left is memories. Precious memories. Cherished moments with family and friends are the golden moments preserved in our minds.

Missed opportunities to share our faith disappear into the past and new moments come and go.
When will we use our time to tell others about Christ Jesus our Savior? How can we use a word to change the direction of one's day or life? Can we use kindness to alter someone's mood? Will a smile warm the heart of one who needs to know someone cares? Little things. Acts of kindness. Smiles. A loving hug. A thoughtful gesture. All can change the day for a lonely heart.

Consider how we can show the face of Jesus to others this week. Today. Make a difference in how someone feels by being the heart of Jesus to them. Be Jesus in their day. Notice the person on the side of the road. Feel the touch to the hem of your clothes. Hear the need in someone's voice. Show love to the lonely. Make a difference today for Jesus.

"If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose," (Philippians 2:1-2 NIV).

Lord, help me reflect Your face and show Your ways to others today. Amen.
