Today more than ever, we see the finger pointing and accusations of ungodliness and betrayal levied by christians against their family members, fellow christians, and even unbelievers. I focus each day and morning on doing all I can to be Christ centered, a reflection of His love and His word, for His glory. That precludes me from pointing the finger, something God had to reveal to me. It demands that every thing I say and do be for his honor and glory, not for mine. We are to honor each other as believers as we are called to love the broken and disenfranchised, to care for the lost, and to love others as Christ loved them.
Let our actions serve not to glorify ourselves, but rather to glorify and honor God. Neither will happen if our actions reflect condemnation and disrespect towards each other. Christ saved us by His sacrifice on the cross, that we might be saved by His grace; His unmerited favor. We should be praying for God to let our light shine so bright that others might see our good works and glorify God. This is not about us, but about living every day for God’s glory, letting His light shine brightly. Let us be united in Christ! Just a little advice to go!
Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 5:16
