Get Used by God

John 9:1-3
Now as Jesus passed by, He saw a blind man who was blind from Birth.
And His disciples asked Him, saying, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?"
Jesus Answered, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him."
in verse 6 Jesus gives sight to the blind man.

Wow, did you get that? Have you ever avoided helping someone because you thought that maybe they brought bad times into their own lives? All over this planet there are people suffering, who have not brought calamity upon themselves... I think that they may simply be waiting for God to use them to reveal Himself through US, thats right, you and me. Just as Jesus revealed God through His work in the blind man, we have been called to reveal God through His love- evident in us as we care about those less fortunate than us.

Many Christians have been trained to reproach certain people- we can't deny it- AIDS victims have such an ungodly stigma around them that churches are loathe to offer support to those inflicted with a "sin-based disease" but what about the children born with AIDS?

I beg you to go and find a way to Reveal God in someone. Make a difference in a life so that when they are asked their story they can say that "I was broken, hungry, wounded, depressed and without hope, but GOD showed love to me and now I am whole. The void in my life has been filled. Do you not see Him?"

Go, and Bless someone today - reveal God in an unexpected way.
