Sheep Among Goats
What does Jesus look like? Who does Jesus resemble? Can we really see the face of Jesus? The text from Matthew's gospel in chapter twenty-five answers those questions. We are given six actions that are clues to help us seek, look and see. Our daily challenge, as followers of and on The Way, is to go out and find the face of Jesus. Come, join us, the sheep and the goats for worship! Let's invite our neighbors...all we are called to love!
Rev. Judy May
