As we continue our rushing around this December from one event to another, I wonder


“Could this be what Christmas is all about?”

I saw Jesus Today...

He was wearing blue jeans and an old shirt. He was up at the church building; He was alone and working hard. For just a minute he looked a little like one of our church members. But it was Jesus, I could tell by his smile.

I saw Jesus last Sunday. He was teaching a Bible class. He didn't talk real loud or use long words, But you could tell he believed what he said. For just a minute, he looked like my Sunday School teacher. But it was Jesus, I could tell by his loving voice.

I saw Jesus yesterday. He was at the hospital visiting a friend who was sick. They prayed together quietly. For just a minute he looked like our Pastor. But it was Jesus, I could tell by the tears in his eyes.

I saw Jesus this morning. He was in my kitchen making my breakfast. He then fixed me a special lunch to take with me. For just a minute he looked like my Mom. But it was Jesus; I could feel the love from his heart.

I saw Jesus today. He was praying on his knees all alone. He then began to cry for those he prayed for. For just a minute he looked like a lady from our church. But it was Jesus; I could see the compassion that poured out of his prayer.

I saw Jesus the other day. He was at the grocery store talking to a friend. He then put his arms around them to comfort them. For just a minute he looked like a young mother in our ladies class. But it was Jesus; I could see the concern for others who hurt.

I see Jesus everywhere, Taking food to the sick, welcoming others to his home, being friendly to a new-comer, And for just a minute I think he's someone I know. But it's always Jesus; I can tell by the way he serves.

May someone see Jesus in you today. But mostly let those without Jesus see Him living in you, for He desires to serve them, no matter what condition, what they wear, own, or look like! "You are My witnesses," says the Lord. (Isaiah 43:5)

Thank you Eloise for sharing this writing.
