The Man in the Mirror

Before I type my intended post, I want to say that Sunday night was awesome! Some may say that we cancelled church, but in my eyes we just took church to the streets. It was unbelievably exciting to see hundreds of people leave Lavaca to be intentionally evangelistic. Thank you all for your dedication and commitment to seeing people come to faith in Jesus Christ.

And now my post: Last night I was standing at my bathroom sink, getting ready for bed and I looked into the mirror. What I saw took me back a little. Of course, I saw myself, but I also saw my dad, especially around my eyes. It has happened a couple of times over the past years. I guess the older I get the more I see glimpses of my father's appearance in my own appearance. I laughed quietly, then a question came to my mind. I wonder if other's see glimpses of my heavenly Father when they look at me? Admittedly, there are times when I fail. I say the wrong thing, do the wrong thing, and even think the wrong thing. But I wonder if others see who Jesus is and what he does when they see me. I wonder if others see Jesus when they look at you. Philippians 1:27 begins by saying "Let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ" O that my conduct would be worthy of the gospel of Christ!!!

I am upset with you Bro Tony . . . I read your blog today and cried and for a man who just had eye surgery that is rather painful. Funny thing the surgically repaired eye would let out no tears; anyhow, thanks for the good word about our earthly and moreover Heavenly Father.
