Seeing Others Through God’s Eyes

“Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.”

2 Corinthians 5:16-17

Ponder This

Years ago, I heard a story that moved me. Down in Tampa, Florida, a man was driving a high-powered boat under a bridge. He hit a bridge pylon, was thrown out of the boat, and nearly drowned. They fished him out of the water and were giving CPR to him on the bridge, trying to do what they could to save him. Another man stopped when he saw the scene. He thought, “That’s interesting. I want to see what is happening. It looks like people are still working to help him. How epic that I get to see this today.”

And then they turned the man’s face, and the man who’d been crossing the bridge said, “That’s my brother!” When he saw the face of his brother, he was transformed. He said, “Hey, call the ambulance! Keep giving him CPR! You people pray! That’s my brother.” Before, he’d just seen that man on the bridge as any other man; now, he recognized the man as his brother, his flesh and blood.

You need to see every man as your potential brother. You need to see every woman as your potential sister. You need to have this confidence that “if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.” When we fish for fish, we take a fish out of a beautiful life into death, but when we fish for men, we take men out of a horrible life into a beautiful life in Heaven.

• Who is a potential brother or sister in Christ in whom you need to invest?
• How do you sacrifice and serve your friends and family? How could that be translated in the way you serve a potential brother or sister in Christ?
