In meditation lately I have been thinking about the people that have touched my life during the hardest days. There were some who helped me but there was an coldness to it. There was no part of themselves, no tender sympathy.

There was help but void of love and compassion. There were others who gave me really less of material help, but they poured generous portions of their own warm life into my soul. I can still feel the touches of both of those lives.

I read a verse in Psalm 44:22, "Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter." I thought about how during those long, long days of suffering how it felt like I was being killed all the day long. I felt like a sheep going to the slaughter.

But now looking back I thank God I was being killed all day long that the life of Jesus Christ slowly became my life. His warm life teaming with the power of His great love for me.

There may be times in your life that you are able to say you too can still feel those cold touches, and the warm touches of generous love that fed your very deeply thirsty soul. The touches that bring healing and peace to go on.

Those touches are a part of you and become eternal. Remember to always give to all the warm, loving touch of the love you received from Christ. Give that part of yourself away generously.

"If we are the sheep of His pasture, remember that sheep are headed for the altar.....When it comes time to die, make sure that all you have to do is die."
~ Jim Elliot
