Carnal Words

The most carnal words a believer can utter are, “I don’t care what other people think.” Did you ever stop to consider that it was what you thought about Jesus that contributed to your turning towards Him? We must never forget that we are drawn to everything that Jesus is and it is all based on what we think about Him. What people think about you should always be a priority in your life. Now you may ask why, or think to yourself I don’t care what anybody thinks but God, and that is my point! God cares greatly what people think of you, because you are His ambassador here on earth. If you are a believer you represent Jesus, plain and simple. There is often an arrogance that is associated with believers, which is not becoming of the Savior they follow. You can bet that people have an opinion of you and it is probably more closely aligned to what Jesus thinks as well. We may all have opinions, but they do not create themselves in a vacuum. There is a reason why people think about you what they do. Never forget that the Christian faith itself is built upon one thing and one thing alone, what we have come to think about Jesus and it is no less important that the world think the same thing about you it has come to understand about Him.
