Devotional: People see CHRIST in us when all we CHOOSE to reflect is compassion with a sincere focus on another souls’ success. Other Christians resonate with the message of CHRIST and offered prayers fairly quickly….wouldn’t you agree? But the Lost? May their “seated” joy become a paramount target in the heart of us…who are standing in CHRIST. THey're the ones who refuse HIM room even though the bench is empty except for their frame. They cannot see how wrong this picture is. So! Choose you this day to focus on the those whose are in “un-saved” seats. Actually those who, while sitting down and watching life go by, do not know CHRIST. For what matters is the saved soul in the End….not the Saved Seat.
Amen and amen.

The Saved Seat

Two travelers – by passing
One resting, one standing
had reason to speak to the other…nearby.
“Please,” came their question
has this seat been saved?”
“For if not, I should like to recline.”

“Please,” came the echo
this space is unclaimed,
so…solely it is your choice to occupy.”
“Why, thank you!” they smiled…
and whilst sitting down said,
“Your encouragement fills my reply!”

“Thus, may I pray with you
for greatest blessings…
without any delay – on your soul – to be poured?”
Surprise filled their face
just as quick as the dawn
and without a word spoken…they nodded “Yes, LORD!”

As HIS servant in your service,
WVW Jasnoch – 12/18/07
