Just about everyone, at some point in their childhood, has had their mother or father say that familiar phrase to them. "Don't point, it's not polite." And if your parent was really on top of it they'd follow it up by saying "Besides you've got three fingers pointing back at you." Let's look at at pointing this way...Everytime you attempt to point someone to Christ, rememeber from that moment on they are looking back at you to see what Christ is all about. Are we perfect? No. Is it fair? Probably not. Is it a serious truth? Absolutely. "Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." (Matt. 5:16) Two questions for you:
1. Did you purposely help point someone to Christ today?
2. When they look back at you, can they see you living it out?

I love these posts!
I also love the message you brought on Sunday.
When my dad was in a band with the Cooley's way back when, they would sing the song that says "This joy that I have..The world didn't give it to me......The world didn't give it, the world can't take it away.."...
And that song, even when I was younger, was always so exciting. It's exciting to know that I have something that can't be destroyed by the stress of work, or the craziness of the world as long as I don't let it be. THAT is something to be excited about!
