Dinner with God

My latest God Moment took place yesterday. I was helping out with the Community Dinner program. In the midst of the busyness I felt compelled to stand back and just watch. It was almost as if I wasn't there but watching a movie. There were the volunteers of all ages each doing their task, talking and laughing together. I felt as if God was saying This is what the Body of Christ looks like. Each person was doing their job in harmony. Each task was important. The dish washers were as important as the meat slicers, each job dependent on the other person doing their job. It was like watching a symphony As I watched my mind reflected on Christmas and the gift of Jesus. Each advent week we celebrated a facet of Christ and what his birth brought. Hope, Joy, Peace and Love. As I watched the preparations and the intermingling with the guests I saw Hope, Joy, Peace and Love, Yes God I said , this is what the Body looks like. Thank you for allowing me the gift of seeing it.
