Recently I have noticed a few cardinals
feeding at my bird feeder, which hangs from a post just outside my home office window. As you can guess, cardinals, with their bright red feathers are easy to spot when they arrive. And in the warmer months, I enjoy listening to their very distinctive song - especially when two or more of them are involved in putting on a concert!
Just as cardinals in the bird world are distinct in both
color and song – we as Christ-followers are to be distinct in the real world in
all that we think, say and do. Christ
calls us to follow the way of the cross – which is a very counter-cultural
path. So if we are walking this path –
denying ourselves, picking up the cross daily and following Him (see Luke 9:23 )
– we will be distinctly different from the masses around us. Are you willing to stand up --- and stand out
for Jesus?
Thanks for stopping by . . .
