Have you ever seen someone and thought, that person is a Christian? I have. Numerous times our family has been out and seen someone and knew right off that the person was a Christian. We could tell by the fruits they displayed.
I want people to see me and know that I am a Christian. I don't want there to ever be doubt or question. Yet as I think back over my attitude or words, I know this is not always the case.
When people look at us, do they have to ask if we are a Christian? Or do they know by they way we act and the words we say?
Father, help me to live for you fully no matter where I am, who I am with, or what I am going through. Help the Fruits of the Spirit to be completely evident in my attitude, words, actions, in my life. I pray that when people see me, they see You. Amen.
By their fruit you will recognize them.
Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles?

Hearing someone ask if I'm a Christian is the greatest compliment a person can pay me--unless it comes in the midst of a heated discussion about opposing views. Attitude is key, Jennifer. Thanks for this great reminder. Followed here from Winsome Wednesday.
