Writing Our Gospel

“But these things have been written, so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and so that, in believing, you may have life in his name.” John 20:32


John wrote so much, and at the end of his gospel he said, “Now there are also many other things that Jesus did, which, if each of these were written down, the world itself, I suppose, would not be able to contain the books that would be written.” (John 21:25) Each of us, as believers in Jesus Christ, should be writing our own gospel. If we truly believe in Him, if we use the gift of the Spirit and the many other gifts God has generously given us, we can for sure continue the Acts of the Apostles in our own life. 

How many times have we prayed for others, laid hands on them even, and they were healed, or passed exams, or their situation got better? How many people have we listened to, cried with, tried to understand, who got comforted with the love of Christ in us? How many people have we helped with our gifts and resources, with our time or money? 

We are God’s hands, God’s feet, God’s heart, God’s presence on earth. Jesus Christ is still continuing His saving work, through us. We just need to be more aware of it, and more sensitive to the little and big things we can do. Nothing is impossible in God who is the source of our strength, our peace, our love. The more we give, the more we will have.
