“Stop touching me!” If I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard that said, I’d be rich! I was the youngest of four girls, all within five years of age. I had one of those siblings - like on the commercial airing lately (he’s still touching me!) - that would hold her finger just close enough to aggravate. Although Tim and I only have two children, we have driven a minivan since our youngest daughter turned one year old. You guessed why! “Stop touching me” or “Mom, she’s touching me!” Do you have that kind of affect on people that causes them to say “Stop Touching Me” or do people feel the touch of God when you are around?

We are constantly “touching” the people who are around us – at home, on the job, in the grocery store. I’ve known people who were so-called ministers of the gospel, yet would bite the head off the cashier at McDonald’s if their order was wrong. Now I don’t believe Christians should allow themselves to be walked on, but when you walk in the Spirit, your “Love reaction” will be a reflection of the love of Christ. A beautiful scene I witnessed not long ago was at the funeral of Tim’s dad. A favorite song of Nana’s, Tim’s Mom, is “He Touched Me.” I was sitting on the front row at the viewing when I heard the peaceful sound of this song rising in the air. I looked up to see Deon Unthank and his daughter, Amy, being joined by Tim and our youngest daughter, Rebecca, bringing comfort to Nana at a time when it was hard to find. I thank God for that “touch” that was given - not with a huge stage and incredible ticket sales, although they are capable, but with a gift of ministry that comes from walking in the spirit.

I can think of many people who always lift my spirits when they are around. I tend to seek those people out. They touch my life in a way that moves me forward in my walk with the Lord. The love of Christ is evident in these dear friends. We cannot avoid coming into contact with everyone who is not a Christian walking in the spirit while we are in this world, but we can seek out those who are a good influence. The scripture is full of this instruction as well as examples of wonderful friendships. “Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour was come that He should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved His own which were in the world, He loved them unto the end.” John 13:1
You have a choice – a conscience decision of how you will touch people. Will you leave a smile on those around you or will they say, “Stop Touching Me!”
