A Tarnished Name

In step practice today we were fooling around as usual. Someone made a comment toward someone else and they responded by saying, "Jesus talks for me." Everyone was like , "huh," and she repeated herself again. I turned toward her and just stared as she repeated it. On the inside I was actually angry at this statement for the simple fact that she was not the image of Christ (I kept my thoughts to myself but it's my blog and I can write what I want :-p). It bothered me because she does not do the things of Christ. I asked myself how could she say these things if she doesn't set the examples of Christ? How could she tarnish such a wonderful name? If Jesus spoke for her how come I don't see it in her daily actions?

That's probably why it's so hard for people to accept Christianity because Jesus' name is not spoken of like it should be. People who do the things of the world claim what is sacred and holy.

  1. Jess, check out these scriptures II Tim.2:19 & I John 2:6, and you make a committment to pray for her and live a godly and holy life as an example for all the world to see. You stand.
