I had to laugh. A good friend of mine, who will go unnamed, shared a story with me of a trucking company who failed to deliver a product on time. As a matter of fact, it was 2 days late! Yikes!
What was the name of the trucking company? Drumroll please…”On Time”! On Time was 2 days late. Needless to say, On Time hasn’t been asked to help out anymore. (don’t think the logo is them!)
I wonder if it’s the same way for some people when observing The Church? Not just my church, although it’s included, but every church in the body of Christ. Do they look at us and think, “are they really as advertised?” Are they really acting like Jesus? Would I be shown compassion, mercy, love and forgiveness by those people? Maybe they already have their answer based off experience.
I sure hope that we, in our churches, are advertising The One with our lives in a way that honors Him. Because if we don’t, are we the next “On Time”?
Go light your world!
