Of course, as a musician, songs always come to mind when a subject does, and the title not only describes what the topic of the day will be ~ but also shows how songs always come to my mind. I will start by quoting the last sentence in yesterday’s blog ~ “We need to make sure our words and actions are a witness and not a warning.” So ~ can I get a witness?
Most of the people who aren’t believers will always speak of the actions of “Christians” that really turn them away, especially those that hold the Bible in one hand while pointing their finger, judging with the other. Actually, most ‘Christians’ are the worst example of what Christianity is all about! We are told in the Bible we should be loving, forgiving, nonjudgmental, caring, giving, and the list goes on. Not to mention how we are to be slow to anger. Does this remind you of anyone you know? Does it even remind you of yourself? Oh, not me…most of us think. But take a deep, closer look at yourself.
Are your words and actions being a witness to others?
Does anyone ask you why you are always positive and how you can be so forgiving?
Speaking of being a witness, when is the last time you spoke to someone about Jesus and salvation? That is our job, too, not just the pastor’s. These are just some thoughts to think about going into the weekend that maybe just might cause a few to start their week out differently and make a difference in someone else’s life – possibly their eternal life.
Just keep in mind ~ if you were the only Bible someone would ever see, would they truly see Jesus?
This is DeVaughn ~ bringing it home.
