[Ohio-Communities-of-Faith] Looking for God by Max Lucado

[Maggie Stringer]

With the passing of years, Henry’s life had changed. His children were
grown. The neighborhood was different. He was unhappy. He asked his
minister if he was unhappy for some sin he’d committed. “Yes,” the wise
pastor replied. “The sin of ignorance. One of your neighbors is the Messiah
in disguise, and you have not seen him.”

With time, Henry saw things in people he’d never seen. When others spoke he
listened. After all, he might be listening to the Messiah. The bounce
returned to his step. His eyes took on a friendly sparkle. He said, “All I
know is that things changed when I started looking for God.”

Now, that’s curious. The old man saw Jesus because he didn’t know what he
looked like. The people in Jesus’ day missed him because they thought they
did. How are things looking in your neighborhood?
