Today I watched a movie entitled The Crash. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it.
Have you ever thought about how you look to others? How do you personally perceive people? Do you judge based on color or accent? Most of us would like to answer no to this question.. but honestly take a minute and think about it.
When you walk past a group of black men do you clutch your purse a little tighter unintentionally? When you see someone of Arab decent do you assume terrorist? These are thoughts that seem to be ever-present in our society.
This fact is greatly disturbing. It is a facet of life I'd like to see disappear. Please take a minute to think about how you treat others. Are you living a life that would please God? Do your actions act in a honorable manner? Would you consider yourself a role model and be okay with the idea of a younger generation looking up to the things you do?
It is up to us to be the change we so desperately want to see in the world.
Matthew 10:32
Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven.
Philippians 1:27
Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending as one man for the faith of the gospel.
Your life is a story.. Make it one worth reading.
