Day 18: Jesus Fever

Oh it is that time of year

when the germs are flying

when hand sanitizer is a staple

when tissues are man's best friend.

One little sneeze is all it takes

to pass it along to another

who has no clue that they caught it until they sneeze.

But what if people caught

JESUS

like they catch a cold?

What if JESUS WAS CONTAGIOUS

that whomever you come in contact with

experiences something so different~

that after leaving your presence

they want what you have?

Just what if

HIS PEACE

flowed from you while you were the midst of a great storm

because you were

"joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer" (Romans 12:12)

Jut what if

HIS LOVE

poured over those who needed LOVE the most?

"Don't pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults -

unless, of course, you want the same treatment.

Don't condemn those who are down; that hardness can boomerang.

Be easy on people; you'll find life a lot easier.

Give away your life; you'll find life given back, but not merely given back -

given back with bonus and blessing.

Giving, not getting, is the way. Generosity begets generosity." (Luke 6: 37-38)

Just what if 2020 was the year when

JESUS became so CONTAGIOUS

that HE infected everyone

because you are so INFECTED with JESUS

that you SPREAD HIM wherever you go~

"Imitate GOD, therefore, in everything you do, because you are HIS dear children.

 Live a life filled with love, following the example of CHRIST. HE loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to GOD" (Ephesians 5:1-2)

May JESUS infect your being so that you

PAY HIM FORWARD

to one SOMEBODY at a time

leaving "NOBODY"* behind.
