Thought For Today

(Jesus continued talking with His 12 disciples) “When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next; for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel, before the Son of man comes.” Matthew 10:23

Lord, I think that is what You would tell us to do today too. There are those that don’t want to hear about You. I think You would say ….walk on…there are those that do want to hear. Perhaps there will come a day when they will have tried everything else and found it didn’t work so they will be ready to listen then.

My mind goes back to my experience in Hong Kong with a young man looking over the very high walkway. He was at the end of his journey in trying everything he could try and was contemplating ending his life when I walked up to him to tell him that You loved him. I have often wondered Lord what happened to Wally after our conversation. I could sense he was changed. He knew it was You speaking to him. So….we never know Lord who is going to be upon our pathway and what words You will fill our mouths with. Just as You told the disciples You would give them the words to say, You give us the words to say today too Lord. Oh how blessed we are because You used not only Your 12 disciples of old but You use us today too. How we thank You.

Thank You Lord.
