Not sure about anyone else but it is really something how people look at you when they know you are a Christian..
They look at us with eyes of entrapment.. looking even closer from afar to see a way to label..
Watching for a slip up so they can discredit each Christian along the way..
Waiting for us to fail.. waiting for us to trip so they can turn it into gossip..
Being a Christian does in no way make us perfect..
We have no magic wands.. We have no special powers.. We are only being transformed into perfection..
God takes each person and takes their life and in a process changes them from the inside out so that we can resemble Jesus..
In no way does that mean we are above the rest..
We walk and we talk like any other..
We fall down and we get up..
The difference is we answer to Christ.. Not the world..
We don’t live for others and we repent as we go and God forgives us..
We strive for the good of the world..
We have higher standards..
We are like a clump of clay being made into something extraordinary..
By the hands of perfection..
We don’t suddenly know more..
We just don’t live for pleasure..
We have found the precious gift of eternity..
We have been given a superior chance to be held in the hands of the Almighty creator..
Where by faith we are given life and not just any life..
Life everlasting!
He makes all eyes new..
He gives us a second chance through redemption..
We are not who we were..
Through Jesus we are transformed..
All those that come to Him and who surrender who they are..
Get a chance of new ways to look at life..
To see it.. To live it..
Breathing in amazing grace fresh and new each morning..
Mercies new everyday..
Unless you really live it..
You should never question those who do..

Oh!.. I have slipped the surly bounds of earth..
Put out my hand..
and touched the face of God..
