Word of the Lord: All Things To All

You have heard it said that you can't be all things to all people, but I say to you---BE all things. To the one who weeps, mourn with them---to the one who laughs, rejoice with them---to the one who struggles, endure with them---to the one who resists, just walk with them. As you walk by their side, without judging or condemning, you create a mirror for them, not of what they SHOULD look like, but of what I created them to BE like. Even in your own imperfections, you will demonstrate persistence to achieve. Even in your own discouragements, you will demonstrate trust which defies circumstances. Especially in your own triumphs, you will demonstrate full expression of your gratitude unto Me.  
So, as ALL PEOPLE look at you throughout ALL OF YOUR LIFE'S JOURNEYS, they will see and identify themselves with you---and in doing so they will feel safe to wholeheartedly identify with ME.  After all, isn't that really why I created you---so that I can be within you and throughout you "Christ in you the hope of glory" to all the world around you ? (Colossians 1:26-27)
