Thoughts of Who Jesus is and What He Does
Thought provoking thoughts of what Jesus is and does. Christ is in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, walking from church to church, from congregation to congregation, (and so tenderly) from heart to heart. He that keeps Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps. (Think on this) If the candlesticks were left to the care of human beings, how often the light would flicker and go out! But, Christ who gave His life for the world, that all who believe in Him may not perish, is the Watchman of the house. He is the Warder, faithful and true, of the temple courts of the Lord. He looks with intense interest to see whether His people are in such a condition spiritually that they can advance His kingdom. (How comforting) He is present in every assembly of the church. He knows those whose hearts He can fill with the holy oil, that they may impart it to others. Those who faithfully carry forward the work of Christ, representing in word and deed the character of God, fulfill the Lord’s purpose for them, and Christ takes pleasure in them (Review and Herald, May 26, 1903). Let’s pray we will be that part that represents Christ to those we associate with. Sherry
