A View from the Rooftop – Thought for the week

In John 4:35 Jesus says, ‘Don’t you have a saying, ‘It’s still four months until harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest’.

 I was speaking at a Rooftop Conference at a church in North London recently.  At the end I encouraged the people to think about the places they visit and the people they know and to consider what a difference it would make if they began to see those people as Jesus sees them. 

Following the gathering I engaged in so many conversations with people whose comments are best summed up in the words of one lady who said.

‘ I have never thought about looking at people outside of church and seeing them as Jesus does, this has changed my entire perspective’.

How does this impact you as you seek to follow Jesus this week?
