Day 7 - Flowers

A couple of years ago a song a song titled: If We Are the Body by Casting Crowns came out. It was okay... had a catchy tune - but after a while I was like ughhh not again... but then the more I heard it, heard the words... I was able to hear the message.

The chorus goes like this:

But if we are the body
Why aren't His arms reaching?
Why aren't His hands healing?
Why aren't His words teaching?
And if we are the body
Why aren't His feet going?
Why is His love not showing them there is a way?  There is a way.

Today someone was His hands and His feet.  Today a friend showed up at work with these beautiful bright colored flowers...  with everything going on - I also had a horrible cold and I was just feeling yucky... wanted to be home and snuggled under the covers.  When I saw her come in and she surprised me with the flowers but heart was full of joy.  God knew what I needed... and she was the instrument He used...  

I sit here and enjoy my beautiful flowers and as I see them I can see what God is trying to tell me...  He loves me and has me under His wings of love... its going to be okay.

How are you letting God use you...  Are you reaching out to others?  Are you sharing His love with others?  Are you being obedient to what God is calling you to do...?  

Take that first step... God wants to do GREAT things through your life to reach others.
