In a dream vision I saw a woman who loved her pet dog. Suddenly a stranger, a bully man, approached the woman and threatened to torture her dog. The woman did not cry out or faint. She did not even try to reason with the cruel man. Instead of begging for the life of her dog and condemning the cruel man, she did something unexpected.

The woman looked the man directly in the face and told him, “I see Jesus in you.” She said this over and over again as she looked deeply into the man, looking beyond his face to the image of God in which the man was created. Soon the image of Jesus’ face appeared!

In the coming difficult times, when the worst of human nature will show itself, WE MUST PRACTICE SEEING THE IMAGE OF GOD, PARTICULARLY OF HIS SON JESUS THE CHRIST, IN ALL HUMANS WE ENCOUNTER. Those with lost souls, the stray sheep, are particularly needy of this Divine Gaze. Deaf and blind to many of God’s influences, unaware of their sleeping and sickly souls, many of the lost will respond to God’s loving call and recognition of His children through you. The lost may not respond immediately to the Divine Gaze, and may continue in their sinful and cruel behavior, even torturing and killing, but their SOULS WILL REGISTER THE ENORMOUS HEALING AND FORGIVING LIGHT OF THIS DIVINE GAZE, and they will seek more of it. PRACTICING THE ABILITY TO SEE JESUS IN ALL WHOM WE ENCOUNTER, WE BETTER UNDERSTAND HOW GOD THE FATHER LOOKS AT US IN OUR OWN SINFUL STATE AND SEES HIS SON JESUS.
