Am I Taking Jesus?
On Sunday night, we challenged our EPIC students concerning their heart and worship. We used Matthew 6.19-24, as our foundational passage—Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also!!!!
Most of us, including myself, say that Jesus is #1 in our life but upon careful and honest examination, we see that we don’t live as though he is.
One test we used @ EPIC was asking our students who had with them something that told others they belonged to Jesus? Answers could have been, Bible, cross necklace, etc. Except for a few who brought their own Bible, the majority of the group had nothing that set them apart as being claimed by Jesus.
I was especially challenged when I realized that I would NEVER leave my house without my wallet and especially my cell phone but I NEVER carry my Bible with me when I just run errands around town or head out with friends to dinner.
Why am I afraid to take Jesus with me? And if I am not afraid, why don’t I make a practice of it?
How did you take Jesus with you today—in a visible way?
