“Look for Christ Our Lord
in everyone and you will then have respect and reverence for all.” Saint Teresa
of Jesus.
This Christmas season, I hope
to see God in others. I want to see with the eyes of a Saint, even through a
Saint’s eyes, I hope to see Christ. Last month, I shared the song ‘Mary Did You
Know,’ by Dolly Parton and the part in the song where she sings, “He walks
where Angels trod,” stood out for me and it means to lead a way of sanctity, to be a saint. To
be able to serve and give to the poor, the hungry, the thirsty, those
persecuted, the neglected, the marginalized and to those in need and want of
love, I need to see with the eyes of my heavenly Father. Sometimes, it might
feel as though my eyes could be fooled but to fool my heart, think again. I
truly believe, it’s with our hearts that we can see rightly and that is why I
would like to see God in others, especially other Christians, disciples,
followers of Jesus Christ. Are we acting out our belief? Do our actions match
what we proclaim? We have all heard the expression “Actions speak louder than
words.”
This is something else I hope
for, for our actions to speak louder this Christmas, we can talk about God always
but it’s about putting our love for God, God’s love for us into action, being
charitable, helpful, supportive, and encouraging. Bringing the gift of Hope,
Peace, Joy, Love and Faith to someone, reminding them that there is something
and someone to believe in, to trust.
Women of Faith and Hope,
this is my hope for this
Christmas Season, to see Christ in everyone, everything and in every way and
after I want to speak about it, to tell you more Good News.
May God Bless Always,
Women of Faith and Hope.
