We All Need Somebody

Here is a quote that I have always loved...

“To the whole world you might be just one person, 

but to one person you might just be the whole world.

 Pablo Casals

This is so well stated!

                                        Please take a look at this video from YouTube.
                                         It will give you a good illustration of my topic.

Once a turtle is on its back

 it is almost impossible for it 

to roll itself back over...to right itself. 
It needs help.

Very often we find ourselves in this same position.

Only God can set us upright again,
and we know we can depend on Him do do this.  
Sometimes there is a miraculous move of God t
hat we know can only be His blessing. 
Other times He uses different means 
to  save us from being upside down in our lives. 

Sometimes God uses you or me to do His work to aid a person to stand when their life has made standing nearly impossible.

Casting Crowns has song with lyrics to address this thought that we are God's hands and feet on earth to further His purposes. The lyrics go like this...

If We Are The Body

by Casting Crowns

It's crowded in worship today

As she slips in trying to fade into the faces

The girl's teasing laughter is carrying farther than they know

Farther than they know

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?

God is the major One that we need to "lean on." Still, when we see someone figuratively on their back and feel that God is calling us to partner with Him, we need to step up to the plate and be His instrument.

God bless...
