Missional Reflection..."Let Us Be You"

A few passages of refection on how are the hands and feet of Jesus Christ, incarnation, on this earth.

"Arise, Jerusalem! Let Your light shine for all nations to see! For the glory of the LORD is shining upon you. Darkness as black as night will cover all the nations of the earth, but the glory of the LORD will shine over you! All nations will come to your light. Mighty kings will come to see your radiance." (Isaiah 60:1-3)

"How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion 'Your God reigns!'" (Isaiah 52:7 TNIV)

"You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot...You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do pepole light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven!" (Matthew 5:13-16 TNIV)

I borrow this prayer from Clarissa Cox in her song, "Let Us Be You!"
Live in our hearts, fill this body.
Stir our spirits, help us serve,
Walk with our feet to the hurting,
Use our blessings to bring justice,
Let us be you, revive your church!
Let us be you on this earth.
Let us be you...when a wounded soul cries out for hope,
Let us be you...when the lonely need to know they're not alone!
Just as your stars pierced through the night,
Let us forever shine your light!
Let us be you, on this earth!
