Have You Been Transformed?



"Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have." (Luke 24:39)

Think back to an experience that changed your life. I'm sure you can think of several moments that have defined your character, your career and your family. Experiences are key to service. They provide the transformational moments that cause us to make big decisions, take risks and focus our attention. 

The moment when the disciples saw the wounds of Jesus after the resurrection had to be a powerful life-changing one for them. Imagine what it would be like to go from despair to celebration in a matter of minutes. They had given up on the cause that had taken them far from family and home only to realize that all was not lost—Jesus was with them! 

You can be sure that this incredible experience gave the disciples strength and courage as they faced the many challenges of sharing the gospel throughout Jerusalem, Judea and the ends of the earth. How have the experiences in your life transformed you and focused you on God’s will and direction? 

When God uses a dramatic experience to transform your life, He is doing it for a reason, and He is striving to get your attention. If you’re open to His leading in those moments, Jesus can mobilize your voice and your hands in a powerful way. 

How can you use what God has done for you to help comfort others?
