I Have No Hands but Yours.....

God has created the human being with that awesome potential, to make a choice for the better or the worse.
My parish priest says that it is true that when a human being commits eveil, he or she can be worse than an animal. yet, it is equally true that when a human being is good, he can be greater than an angel.

At this stage of my faith, I wouldn't say I am in agreement with all of the Christian faith's teachings and doctrines. But this passage really strikes me. To me, it summarises what the Christian faith is all about...that Jesus lives in each and everyone of us. Jesus works through us to bring good and hope for the humankind. He is God's ambassador!

Christ has no body but yours
No hands, no feet on earth but yours
Yours are the eyes through which He looks
With compassion on this world
Yours are the feet with which
He walks to do good
Yours are the hands with which
He blesses all the world
Yours are His hands
Yours are His feet
Yours are His eyes
Yours are His body

Christ has no body now on earth
But yours

St. Francis of Assisi
