You know people talk and if they've been around you or me......they've probably talked about us. I was thinking last night I wonder what people say about me or what I am known for to people?
Do people say I am...
- Surfer
- Skater
- Husband
- Father
- Loser
- Musician
- Inconsistent
- Failure
- Success
- Funny
- Proud
- Humble
- Loving
- Sensitive
- Rude
- Hateful
- Liar
- Thief
- Murder (not literally peeps)
- Christ follower
- Patient
- Selfish
- Holy Spirit led
Does the order matter....maybe? Is what's not said matter? Absolutely! People say what they see and if they aren't seeing what I say I am.... then I'm probably not. Is my fleshly nature more known than my spiritual one?
"But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you WILL not gratify the desires of the flesh.... And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires."
Galatians 5:16,24
If people see some of those characteristics in me and I call myself a Christian, then I am taking the name of the Lord in vain. What a terrible testimony that would be.
