What type of Bible are you?!?!?!?
Good morning everyone!! I hope this is a wonderful and glorious day in the Lord for you!!! Isn't it amazing how when we do try to walk in step with the Lord things seem to be easier. God is good all the time and all the time God is good. We cannot outgive God. Last night upon reaching my final destination, bed, I turned on the gospel music channel, easy to listen to, and woke up just after 4 a.m. fully rested and ready for the day. Isn't that amazing?!?!?! Okay, enough idle stuff. (better idle than idol, huh? lol)
I picked this up from a friend, thank you Joe. we were talking about people having Christian symbols on the back of their vehicle and then driving crazy. He said his dad used to say we may be the only Bible some people see!!! Now, stop and think about this!!! WOW!!! What an impact!! we may think only our pastors, elders, deacons, Sunday School teachers are accountable. If you are the only Bible someone may seen, what is your cover like??? What is the story inside????? What type of Bible are you??
Do we allow God the opportunity to show us areas in our life where we may be lacking? Yes, we will make mistakes, but don't be afraid to admit those mistakes. Our integrity is at stake, our personal integrity, but most of all our integrity in Christ. We need to realize that others look to us as a role model and take that responsibility seriously. We need to trust that God will help us as we strive to live a life of integrity.
Proverbs 10:9 "HE WHO WALKS WITH INTEGRITY WALKS SECURELY, BUT HE WHO PERVERTS HIS WAYS WILL BECOME KNOWN."
Proverbs 20:7 "THE RIGHTEOUS MAN WALKS IN HIS INTEGRITY; HIS CHILDREN ARE BLESSED AFTER HIM."
Proverbs 14:3 "THE INTEGRITY OF GOOD PEOPLE CREATES A SAFE PLACE FOR LIVING."
Integrity means choosing to consistently do the right thing in all situations, each day, following the ethics defined by Christ Himself. Don't shade the truth or cut corners because it is easier. A life of integrity is not to keep up appearances but must reflect the "Christ" which is on the inside. As a Christian you are in the public eye.... what type of Bible are you?
Thank you for reading today. Love you all. Keep you Bible clean and as pure as possible. WHAT TYPE OF BIBLE ARE YOU?!?!?!?!?!?
In Christ's Love and Grace
