Channeling Christ's Love

By Dr. Robert Schuller

"I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing." --John 15:5

Faith allows you to open up and be yourself! It is connecting yourself, with spiritual integrity, in a relationship with Jesus Christ. When that happens, you can work wonders in helping other people. Happiness, self-esteem, and self-worth will be natural byproducts!
What is a Christian anyway? A Christian is a mind through which Christ thinks, a heart through which Christ loves, an eye through which Christ looks, a face through which Christ smiles and encourages people, a hand through which Christ touches, and a voice through which Christ offers hope. Can I be a Christian?
You can do it if you are willing to be a conduit.
Recently a friend shared with me, "Your possibility thinking really helps me. I was having real problems with my son. One day I was out in my garden. When I looked at the water pipe, I thought to myself, Christ wants me to be a conduit. He wants to flow through me. I simply have to let Him do it.
"Then," she said, "the phrase hit me: 'I can do it if I will be a con-du-it.'"
That's what a branch is to a tree--a conduit for the sap to flow upward to bear fruit.
That's what an electrical wire is--a conduit for energy to flow from the source to the place of need. That's what you and I are in this life--conduits for Christ carrying love. Through us, Christ can turn on lights in dark minds!

I was pondering what to write this time ...... afterall, one can't run out of praises for the Lord.
Then, I read this powerful article. Yes, it's good to know that Christ carries with Him the love we all need. Christ is love itself in full example. We will be His channels ...... let Love flow from us!
