WE ARE, WE DO
More than once while reading quotes
from other writers, we have noticed,
that while what they wrote is true,
quite often the reverse of what the
quote could also be true.
Take for instance this quote by Angie
Papadakis...
"The more you do, the more you are."
While this may be true, we have the
reverse to also be true...
"The more you are, the more you do."
We find the above idea to be particularly
appropriate for those who call themselves
Christians.
If we are born again
We leave the old ways behind
If we are followers of Jesus
We cast out our nets for men
If we are trusting in the Lord
We rely not on the arm of flesh
If we are looking for Christ's coming
We worship him in the present hour
If we are sheltered in his arms of love
We find contentment wherever we are
In essence, the more we are in Christ
The more we glorify him by what we do
(Written in 1978)
