Our lives like a show glass




To show Jesus means to reflect Jesus.  This simply means letting others see Jesus in you.
This can be likened to a show glass. A show glass is usually transparent so that you can have an actual and clear view of what is inside. When the glass is clean and shiny, the contents inside the glass becomes very visible and can attract the buyer. When the show glass is dirty,  you won't be able to see inside of it clearly, so what is inside might be misjudged.

We are the show glass.  Jesus is the content in the show glass. So when we are clean and without sin, we show Jesus to the world and simultaneously also draw more people to Jesus. But when we are filthy and dirty, people might tend to misjudge Jesus.

One thing about showing Jesus is that it is written all over your face. It's not hard to figure out.

There is a common saying that we are the Bible people read.  Our behavior, actions, words and way of life will either bring people to Jesus or not.

You are a representative and an ambassador of Jesus here on earth. An ambassador of a country always makes sure his actions make his country proud. Since we are Jesus ambassadors,  let us make him proud.

If your actions are concealing Jesus instead of revealing him,  then you should watch it.

Show Jesus!
Happy Sunday!

Normality in Abnormality Part 4

Thank you for following up the series... Our Bible reference is Proverbs 25 Lesson 4: Proverbs 25:11-14 Timely advice is as lovely as golden apples in a silver basket. 25:12   Valid criticism is as treasured by the one who heeds it as jewelry made from finest gold. 25:13   Faithful messengers are as refreshing as snow in the heat of summer. They revive the spirit of their employer. 25:14   A person who doesn't give a promised gift is like clouds and wind that don't bring rain. Don't talk too much. Talk when it is right.  An idea well expressed is like a design of gold set in silver.  There is power in communication.  Make sure your words are wisely chosen lest you begin to sound like a fool.  When you speak good words at the right time, your words would be appreciated. Communication is not based on the amount of words one might say,  but the timing of what one says. There is no better blessing than when someone who is inexperienced listens and adheres to a

If God had no TIME.....

I saw this poem,  and it struck me to share I knelt to pray but not for long I had to much to do as the year ends I had to hurry and get to work For bills that would soon be due So I knelt down and said a hurried prayer And jumped up off my knees My Christian duty was now done My soul could now rest at ease All day long I had no time To spread a word of cheer No time to speak of Christ to friends They'd laugh at me I'd fear 2016 ending!  No time,  no time,  too much to do That was my constant cry But at last the time,  the time to die I went before the Lord I came;  I stood with downcast eyes For in his hands God held a book It was the book of life God looked into his Book and said "Your name I cannot find. I once was going to write it down.... But never found the time. " Wow.  This is an amazing poem.  Imagine if God had no time. We most times procrastinate a lot,  saying no time,  no time.  But where did time really go.  We all have th

The Chronicles of Acts 4....

The chronicles of Acts 4 The fact that people are persecuted because of the Gospel,  isn't something new. When you are talking about a higher power or a higher authority,  people who can't do anything about it, because that thing is higher than them,  yet they don't want to come under it's authority,  would look for ways to stop you. No matter how the people want to stop Gods word from manifesting,  Gods word always gets delivered to whoever it is sent. Acts 4:4. Through the arrest of Peter and John,  there was an opportunity for the message of God to be spread directly to the members of the council.  Acts 4:12-13. In the case of Peter and John,  they we're arrested.  That might not be the case in the world of today.  You might get humiliated and disgraced,  but know that no matter their schemes,  Gods authority surpasses them all. God allows some things to happen in the present because of a manifestation in the future.  Acts 4:10-11. Jesus was crucif
