"That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto His kingdom and glory."
I Thess. 2: 12
Have you ever had one of your good friends start dating someone and think to yourself, "What IS she thinking??!! She deserves such a better guy than That!!" My dear friends, what do people think when they see your life in response to Christ? Since the Church is the Bride of Christ we are very much connected to Him. I know we as sinful mankind can never truly deserve Christ's love but are we a cheating girlfriend? Who or what are we putting in front of our Lord? When non-believers see our lives are they intrigued or disappointed that we can't live what we preach? Lord- give me the endurance to keep my walk pure and worthy of You in this sinful world!

Hi Michelle!
Well put - I had been mulling over a similar verse in Colossians 1 (...that ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing...), wondering how that works out in the nuts and bolts of living it...I think you're right, though, it has to do with the others looking on, knowing Who it is we claim - and Who claims us, I am so glad to add! :) Love you, Sissy<><
