Wednesday hugs
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. (Matthew 5:16)
How do we look before men?? What am I glorifying. You know, I was listening to some of my friends, co-workers and others who were headed to Pasadena the other day. They were so excited about the championship game. One lady actually made the comment that she was so excited that she thought she would be physically ill. Some courts are closing down for the day and some companies are closing for the day. I sat and thought to myself, what if we got that excited about the true Champion...the One who died to redeem us. WOW...that would be awesome. I wanted to tell these people that while I understand and it is awesome that our state team has made it this far and I am very glad they did, it would be even greater if we all got this excited about Jesus. What kind of light are we shining?? Does the world see our good works or are they seeing people who gripe, complain, whine, want, gossip, show hatred, etc. Are we showing them something that they really want or something that they think they can live without? I pray that I can show the excitement of living a Christ-filled life. I promise, there is no sporting event on earth that can top this. Shine Jesus Shine!!!!
What agreat share. And so true. My boss and his brother left for the game this morning. They were so excited and that excitment was contagious. I wish the world would get that excited about our Savior.
Thanks for all you do for the board,
