Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Pidamos a Dios para que veamos a los demás por los ojos de Jesús viendolos como gente en la cual la obra de Dios tiene que ser cumplida. ¿Y que es la obra de Dios? Jesús lo dijo así, "Creer en el que ha mandado." (Juan 6:28-29)
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Let's ask God to help us view people through the eyes of Jesus so that we will see them as someone in whom the work of God needs to be displayed. When Jesus and his followers approached a man who was blind from birth, the disciples assumed that this misfortune had happened because someone had sinned. Jesus saw their labeling of the man as dehumanizing to the man and a dismissal of his value as a person because they thought he had sinned or his parents had. So, Jesus taught them, and if we pay attention, he teaches us to see a person's hurt as our opportunity and responsibility to bring God's grace to someone in need. So, what is this work of God we are to help display in people's lives? Jesus had answered that question earlier in his ministry: "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent" (John 6:28-29) — Jesus!
Mi oración
Padre, ayúdame ver la gente que me rodea como la ve Jesús. Quiero ver Tu obra hecha en sus vidas. Dáme paciencia con los que me maltraten, ternura con los que padecen y denuedo con los que estan listos a recibir al evangelio de Jesús. En el nombre de Cristo Jesús oro, Amen.
My Prayer...
Father, please help me see the people around me as Jesus does. I want to ensure that your work is done in their lives. Please give me patience with rude people, tenderness with hurting people, and boldness with those who are ready to hear the Good News of Jesus. Use me to help others display your work in their lives! In the name of Christ Jesus, I pray. Amen.
