“Christ has no body now but yours. No hands, no feet on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes through which he looks compassion on this world. Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good. Yours are the hands through which he blesses all the world.” – St. Teresa of Avila
* This “prayer” attributed to St Teresa of Avila was composed about 500 years ago. It is a mentality like this that helped produce a lot of Christian experts and professionals in different fields in Europe. It was a mentality like this that led to the socio-economic development of Europe.
It is a mentality like this that Africa needs today. Be the “messiah” that your neighbour/ society is searching for. If everyone or majority of us would be ready today to help alleviate the problems of his/ her immediate society, we will discover that the “messiah” we are searching for is not living in the mountains or in the sky but in/ among us.
