So God, what do you want me to do today??

I would like to make a point of it to ponder this question each and every morning during the first hour I am awake.  It goes beyond simply asking God, what would you like me to do today?  It goes into God, what can I do for YOU today.  We are the hands and feet of Jesus Christ, and we need to use our own hands and feet, our own talents, our own skills, in order to share His merciful love with others.

It goes into praying for Him to assist us to SEE the opportunites presented to us as opportunities which we can help others, or  share love, peace and positivity with others.  To ask Him to give me His eyes to see with, to view others in the same light as He sees others. To truly give up my own judgments and misconceptions, and to really see others with COMPASSION, to see the human DIGNITY in every single person no matter their problems, attitudes, issues, rantings, etc.  To be merciful, to be the first to forgive in all situations, and to be just and act with righteousness.  To seek to be His hands and feet, each day. To seek to share His love and peace, each day.  To ask God, what do you want me to do today? What can I do for You today?
