What makes me different

I want to be a good witness and live a Christian life, knowing that I may be the only Bible some folks will ever read. I fail miserably at times but I ask forgiveness and try harder. I have had, on occasions, someone ask what makes me different? What is it that makes me treat people respectfully? And, what makes me love everyone, even when they don't love me?

I'd like to say that I am just a good person, saintly even. But, there are few things further from the truth. There is not a lot of good just residing in me physically. However, GOD living in me makes me different.

Today's word is Titus 3:4 - 5a, ESV, which reads, "But when the goodness and loving kindness of GOD our SAVIOR appeared, He saved us..."

When I look around and see all that GOD has done for me and all that He has given me, how can I not be thankful and respectful and humbled. As mentioned before, it's not because I am good or that I am special, it's because GOD is good and because He loves us and cares for us.

When I realize all that He has done for me, I want others to experience it too. I want others to see the difference GOD makes in my life. I want them to accept Him and experience it for themselves. I want them to realize that it is GOD living in me that makes me different. I pray others can see it.

Be Blessed,
