Jesus With Skin On


Jesus Needs You

One evening late in the middle of a violent thunderstorm a young boy could be heard crying in his room. A caring father went upstairs to comfort his son. He opened the door to the young boy's room only to find him hiding under the covers on his bed. The father said, "Son, what's the matter?" The young boy said, "Dad, I'm scared." The father reassured the boy there was nothing to be afraid of. He told him he was secure because the doors were locked and he was just downstairs with the boy's mother. The young boy said, "But, Dad, I'm still scared!" The father then began to talk to his son about the fact that Jesus was right there with him and would protect him. With that the young boy said, "Dad, I know Jesus is here with me, but right now I need a Jesus with some skin on."

THE TRUTH FOUND IN THIS STORY IS:


Sometimes words of comfort and faith are not enough for people. Sometimes people need something tangible to meet their immediate needs and hurts. We, as Christians, are called to meet those needs and hurts. In other's moments of need we are called on to be "Jesus with Skin on" in His Behalf. (II Corinthians 5:20)
