Break that Bread of Life

The only Bible some will ever read is me!

2 Corinthians 6:1-4,6-7,10 NKJV

We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain. [2] For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you." Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. [3] We give no offence in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed. [4] But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses, [6] by purity, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by sincere love, [7] by the Word of Truth, by the Power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, [10] as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

I may be the only Bible that someone will ever read, how am I translating it in my world?

Do people see Jesus in my words and actions? Or, do I give a bad interpretation of Him? Do I bring His Name into disrepute?

Do I easily gloss over my faults and failings and let myself off?

As I live my life before Him, I am to break that Bread of Life with those around me, sharing the grace that I have so freely received from Jesus.

This is where I so desperately need the Holy Spirit, moment by moment, to transform my heart in the midst of the blitz of every situation - dark or light.

Share each joy and sorrow as if it was my own. Listen to the things that folk say, really listen. Look into their eyes and let the Lord meet their needs, BE that channel of grace.

NOW is the day of salvation - that means not putting it off for another, more convenient time.

Stop. Break that Bread of Life. Share it. Don't be afraid.

Hearts are breaking behind closed doors.

Those doors need to be opened, even broken down, to let the Love of Jesus flow in.

I may be the one to do it - so may you!

Matthew 10:8 NKJV

Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.
