I’m actually going to have my eggnog minus the alcohol. I like the idea of spiked nog, but not the taste as much. And why is it I only like eggnog in December?
I’ve been thinking of my own question: What makes a Christian? This is one of those questions that needs to be answered internally and externally.
Internally: What makes me a Christian? I spend time with God and myself for this answer. And it varies. I always believe, but I also fail, fear and doubt. Claiming to be a Christian is a daily feat. I don’t want to be a token Christian. I don’t want to claim to be a Christian the way I claim to be on a diet.
Externally: People have expectations of Christians based on their own experience with Christians. I grieve for people who have lost their faith or rejected God because of their experience with a “Christian”.
To call yourself a Christian is to align yourself with Jesus, the Son of God. Do so with care. Mainly, do so with love. God bless us, every one.
What exactly do you mean by “aligning yourself with Jesus, the Son of God?” That could be a blog post.
