Last Sunday we had Rob Harley speak to us at The Salvation Army Johnsonville in both our morning and evening services.
Something that Rob said struck me. He said that unfortunately Christians are more known now for what they don’t believe in than for what they do believe in. That they are more known now for what they don’t like others doing than for what they do themselves.
He pointed out that schooling as we know it came about because God came to earth in the form of Jesus. That Paul didn’t tell the Athenians that they were evil for worshipping idols, he simply told them about God and Jesus.
My prayer today is that than when I die, people will remember me not for what I was against, but for what I believe in and what I do because of that belief.
God bless
