Jesus Seeing Impoverished Multitudes (3)
Series: The Body of Christ
Donald Cantrell
Matthew 9: 35 - 38
The ''eyes of Jesus Christ'' are eyes that see impoverished multitudes. He does not merely see masses of humanity, but he sees multitudes of needy people, those that are hurting, hopeless, and standing in need of salvation. If the church could mimic the Lord, it would behoove us to have his ''eyes.'' The church needs to see humanity as the Lord sees humanity.

THE EVENTUAL RESCUE
How many of you like Winnie the Pooh stories?
In one poignant story, we see Pooh Bear walking along a river bank. Eeyore, his stuffed donkey friend, suddenly appears floating downstream, on his back of all things, and is obviously troubled about the possibility of drowning. Pooh calmly asks if Eeyore had fallen in. Trying to appear in complete control, the anguished donkey answers, ''Silly of me, wasn't it?'' Pooh overlooks his friend's pleading eyes and remarks that Eeyore really should have been more careful. In greater need than ever, Eeyore politely thanks him for the advice (even though he needs action more than he needs advice). Almost with a yawn, Pooh Bear points out, ''I think you are sinking.'' With that as his only hint of hope, drowning Eeyore asks Pooh if he would mind rescuing him. So Pooh pulls him from the river. Eeyore then apologizes for being such a bother, in his depressed tone, and Pooh, still unconcerned, yet ever so courteous, responds, ''Don't be silly...you should have said something sooner.''
