... being Christ to one another....

I "like" this page called "Jesus" on facebook, and how could I not like it... I love Him... ;)
"He" posts great scripture, challenges, you can post your prayer requests etc... so, nice, I like it.. :D
today, this was one of the early morning posts:


When you are drowning.......I will lift you out.
When you lack faith......I will erase your doubt.
When you are slipping.......I will restore control.
When you are dying.....I will embrace your Soul.
I am your Savior. Will you grab my outreached hand?

this is good news, for both the unbeliever who could be grabbing that hand for the first time, and, it is for us, the believers too....
we feel like we are drowning at times, we lack in faith, we definitely are slipping and we will all die...
will we put our trust in Him every step of the way?
we, the community of believers, if we are honest with ourselves, all struggle with these things once in a while... this is when a sister or brother in Christ needs to remind us... the great part is that this is something we can do for each other, all of us, there is no "I am the more mature one and I will always have that role in your life"... no, it very much is a two way street between any two believers... as long as we are AUTHENTIC and share where we are with someone, without fearing judgement..
following Him for more than 17 years now I am most amazed about the "when you are slipping".. as in taking some tentative steps away... He just comes in, and in His amazing love gently restores....
my love for Him grows day by day....

so today, I will love Him and my "neighbour", I will fear no judgment and be authentic, I will be Christ to whoever allows me to be... and I will gladly receive Christ's love from my FF's.... my fellow followers :D
