Christ has no body
Christ has no body,
none but yours,
No feet,
but yours.
Yours are the eyes through which Christ’s compassion must look on the world.
Yours are the feet with which
He is to go about doing good.
Yours are the hands with which,
He is to bless us now.
Teresa of Avila
Op grond van bogenoemde kan dit goed wees indien werklike leiers gereeld vrae soos die hieronder vra:
- Hoe ervaar mense Jesus wanneer hulle by my is?
- Wat leer mense tans van Jesus se aanraking (hande)? Is dit sag, gewelddadig?
- Wat leer mense van Jesus se bewegings ken? (Voete)
Beweeg Hy tussen gesondes, siekes, rykes, armes?
- Wat leer mense van wat Jesus raaksien in hierdie wêreld? (Oë)
Fokus Hy slegs op die verkeerde dade van mense of sien Hy ook die mooi in mense raak?
- Wat beleef ander van Jesus se hart vir hierdie wêreld? (Barmhartigheid).
Is daar geen betrokkenheid by mense of is Hy teenwoordig in mense se hartseer en blydskap?
“Who is Jesus Christ”?
If Jesus himself did a survey today, asking each of us personally the question He once asked Peter, Who do you say that I am? He would, I am sure, get a wide variety of. Who do you say that I am?
