The beckoning Savior

Isaiah 54, 55

The Lord says, “Come! Every one who is thirsty, weary, hungry.” I will give you rest.

Many years ago on a Wednesday night at church, the Lord gave me a vision of Christ Jesus standing with His arms outstretched in a beckoning stance. I could never see His face … only His arms reaching out to humanity. I can still see that image. It was indelibly etched in my memory.

We are living in the days when His arms are still outstretched. There is still time for hungry, thirsty souls to come to Christ. We are His ambassadors, the ones who have been given the commission to bring others to Christ.

A good place to start … those who are searching, broken, and wounded. They NEED a Savior. We can be sensitive to those around us who fill this bill.

But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts (live in such a way that they KNOW you are a Christian): and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: [1 Peter 3:15]
