How was Church today?
'O great, the preacher was fantastic, the singing was good and the attendance was high.....' then the little child ask: "but where is Jesus, why don't I see him for the preacher said that he lives in us ?" Yes, what is the answer to the little child's question? where is Jesus, if he lives or is supposed to live in us, why is he not visible in our actions and in our words? The first believers in Christ were called 'followers of the Way' which later came to be known as 'Christians'. Today how can we, Christians, be described? do we have the mind and heart of Christ? are we compassionate in our dealings.........?
What is the missing ingredient in our life today? "Love one another as I have loved you and by this all will know that you are my disciples". God so loved the world that He gave himself up for us even when we did not fully understand his actions. God's love for the world, me/you/us... try to personalize it, and what do you see?  the love of God that will not let you/me go..... the Cross .... that is the price of God's love for the world/me/you. That's the degree by which we should love God and one another.
Christianity is having a living relationship with Christ and one another. So therefore as the Christian world prepares for Lent, let the world see how much we love and care for one another to answer the  little child's question. That little child can be your neighbour, the homeless in your neighbouhood, your colleagues at work, don't look too far off, ask yourself: "Is Jesus living in me?" and with His grace begin act like Him.
