I am a Christian
Writer and consider the Halo Ministries an awesome Christian Outreach on
the worldwide web. It was in February 1986 when I wrote an article
entitled "HAS
SOMEONE SEEN JESUS?". Because there have been many pages written
thus far, I recently reviewed that particular page and its attachment.
I
was again reminded of a happening that occurred prior to a few years ago of
February 1986. The written page of 2/21/1986, with its attachment, I want to share with the public as follows . . . . .
HAS
SOMEONE
SEEN
JESUS?
Written
by Johanna Hobrath [1986]
A
number of years ago, I worked in a Children's Day Care Center. Through
the eyes of the children, the Lord allowed me to see many spiritual truths
that enriched my own personal life.
There
was a girl, at the Day Care Center, by the name of "Stacey".
Stacey had a medical problem; however, she was bright, witty, and acted like
any normal young child. Stacey was battling with a lymph
disorder. The doctors were hopeful
that the illness that Stacey was facing would be alleviated via the
surgery. I loved many of those children from the Day Care
Center. One day, Stacey came to me and said: "Joann, I had
a dream about you. I dreamed that you were a man." My
reply, while feeling somewhat insulted, was: "Really?"
Later on, I thought that I could have questioned Stacey further and asked,
"What did he look like? What did he say? What did you say,
etc."
As
time went by, I pondered about the incidence with Stacey. My pride
about Stacey's dream no longer caused my heart to feel wounded. I began to
wonder "who was that man that Stacey dreamed about?" Could
it be that Stacey saw "Jesus" in me? If so, may the Lord
forgive me for having had that wounded pride. Recently [2-21-86] my
memory of that incidence was once again awakened, and the Lord allowed me to
write the poem entitled "HAS
SOMEONE SEEN JESUS?".
[2-14-2007]
The Bible makes reference about the disciples trying to remove the children
that wanted to see Jesus. Jesus, however, stated: "But
Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto
me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 19:14

Has
someone seen Jesus
As
you gave them a smile?
Has
someone seen Jesus
As
you whispered an "Hello" nearby?
Has
someone seen Jesus
As
you met your family's needs
Or
did a wondrous deed indeed?
The
day you said, "Jesus, forgive"
God
imparted part of Heaven within.
And
when you meet God's child
Remember
he is walking this earthly mile
And
needs encouragement like you and me
Because
Satan likes to entangle
Those
in disparaging need.
Yes,
part of Heaven is stored inside
In
a heart that is right
Between
God and God's child.
So,
when we meet, dear friend,
And
if you are God's child
I
shall remember you carry
Part
of Heaven inside.
