"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 allows a dramatic experience to happen in 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.
