Helping others to "see" Jesus

February 23, 2011

Chaplain Sheirer shared a powerful visual through a picture drawn by one of the Seniors he ministers to on a daily basis at the Retirement Center. He holds a House of Prayer meeting on Tuesday with them. At first, someone planted seeds of doubt on his desires to have a prayer meeting there and questioned how necessary this would be, and after all, many of the residents didn’t even attend his church.

After praying about it, the chaplain went ahead by faith. His small group quickly grew to 5, 7 and up to 15 faithful attendees. There were people in the Center who were interested and needing prayer! A woman came forward expressing her newfound faith in Christ. She had penciled a picture of Christ.

Chaplain Sheirer showed that drawing on Wednesday night. One never knows who needs our gifts so they may have a clearer picture of Jesus and His love for them.

There may be voices of discouragement all around us and distractions, too. Our prayer today is for Jesus to be our vision. Let’s ask him to help us to live in such a way, that people He sends on our way can see a picture of Jesus shining through us. No matter how old we are, it’s never too late to get to know Him more.

Our Spiritual Body Building focus is on the church and how we have a special mission to show God’s compassion to the world-starting with the persons sitting next to you and me right now.
