TO BE IT, IS TO LIVE IT!
“…he that hath seen Me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, ‘Shew us the Father?†John 14:9b
If you want to tell someone how well something works, it’s best if you’ve used it yourself. If you want people to believe something, it’s more effective if they can see something. The Word of God tells us that we’re witnesses; we’re to be ambassadors for Christ; we are representatives. A representative acts as a spokesperson or an agent. We have a very important position and responsibility in this Christian walk. It’s not enough to just tell someone, ’God is good!’ It’ not enough to tell people, ’Jesus loves you!’ It’ not enough to tell someone that ’God can change you!’ We must display God’s goodness, show Jesus’ love, and we must live the changed life! Be a witness!
To BE it, is to live it! We must live what we believe; live what we are confessing; and live what we are preaching. Jesus said, ’he that has seen Me has seen the Father.’ People should look at us and see the Father in us; People should see the Christ in us; they should see the life in us and the light shining from us. Your walk should be your witness. If you are shouting how great the Word is, then live the Word, apply the Word, walk the Word, saturate yourself in the Word…then you are one with the Word and the Word is one with you. You become a walking witness; a living testimony; an ambassador and representative….You will be it, because you live it!
So today, purpose in your heart to be a witness. Be the Word in every word you speak, everything you do, every decision you make, everyplace that you go.
Love, forgive, have compassion, be patient, be kind, have faith, be good, be gentle and peaceable, and have joy.
Be the Word to somebody today! You may be the only Bible they ever read!
“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

For We Walk By Faith, Not By Sight
2 Corinthians 5:7
People come into you Life for a Reason!
After you
have finished reading it, you will know the reason it was sent to you. Here
goes:
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you
know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. When
someone is in your life for a Reason, it is usually to meet a need you have
expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide
you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally or
spiritually. They may seem like a godsend and they are. They are there for
the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part
or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring
the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled,
their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is
time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a Season, because your turn has come
to share, grow or learn. They bring you an experience of peace or make you
laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give
you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it, it is real. But only for a
season .
Lifetime relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build
upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept
the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all
other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind
but friendship is clairvoyant.
Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season
or a lifetime.
Love and Hugs in Christ Jesus
