Hey everyone,
I hope you're all doing well! It was a little chilly outside today where I am, but it's warming up and I'm pretty happy about that.
The idea for this blog post came to me just as I put in a pair of earrings. A little weird, I know, but hey! it works.
So, do any of own a cross necklace? A purity ring? I don't own either of them, but I do have cross earrings, which are the the earrings that I just put on. I was thinking about how we wear things like this, that symbolize our love for God and our promises to Him, but so often we forget about them and we're rude to people, gossip and just be flat out mean. Now, what do you think the message is that we're sending out to people that aren't christians? It's okay to say we love God and we value Jesus' teachings, but we talk trash about people and completely contradict ourselves? That's being what I call hypocritical.
So I ask you guys to think about the message you're sending out to people when you wear God on your face but don't wear God in your heart. When you say you love Him but go against everything Jesus stands for. It's kind of powerful, isn't it? And the scary part is, is that we do it alot.
Happy Thursday!
I've never REALLY thought about it that way... that's a good way to put things. I like the way you put it.simple and, at the same time, quite detailed. I think you managed to get into my skull. :P
