2 Corinthians 3:2- “You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on our hearts, to be known and read by all.”
Many years ago, a fellow teacher at my school noticed the cross that I wear daily. She looked at me and said words I will never forget, “I didn’t know that you were a Christian!”
That was one of the saddest comments I had ever heard, but it changed my life, profoundly. I didn’t want people to only know that I was a Christian because of a piece of jewelry. I wanted them to see Christ in me!
I asked God to show me ways in which I needed to change so that others might know that I was His child. I wanted my life to be representative of a daily walk with my Savior… to show my commitment to Christ and be an outward sign of what He has done in my heart… to glorify Him through my life and actions.
Do I mess up? Of course I do! But because He forgives his children, He sends the Holy Spirit to help me move forward.
I still wear my cross necklace, but I trust it’s my actions that show the world who I am–in Christ!
