Your reflection makes me want to be more mindful of what I’m communicating to others, especially about God’s love. Thank you for sharing this—so needed in today’s world!

I'm like you, I want others to see Him in me. We are often unaware what others see in us. God bless.

Lately, during my quiet times, I have been meditating on the Fruits of the Spirit. While the list feels intimidating to execute, I remember that they are by-products of a higher power dwelling inside me. My job is to ask for the Spirit and walk in obedience so as not to quench it.

Some of them are easier said then done sometimes, but I do wish to ALWAYS be the light in the darkness, showing Christ Jesus in my life and attitude. Thanks for sharing and reminding us about this Kate!

Thanks for sharing this. It's a great way to start my morning. Of those God brings into our lives (unbelievers) I've sometimes had a difficult time. It's so important to reflect Christ's character to them when our flesh wants to lash out. Die to self daily.

So true Christine. Sometimes it's easy to forget, others are watching us and we are witnessing to them whether we say anything or not.

Although this should be erm… elementary to those who profess to follow Christ, I am so glad you covered this in such a simple and easy to understand manner. I hope this doesn’t come off as arrogant or rude.

I enjoyed reading this and mulling it over. Trying to determine if I should share with a friend who has been seriously wronged.

Thanks Anne. Sometimes we are witnessing to others with our actions without saying any words at all. So, how we handle things is important in that respect. Thanks so much for reading and taking the time to comment - I appreciate you as one of my subscribers!
