...but do we love Jesus?

You've seen the commercial advertising insurance or something, haven't you, that says, “Life comes at you fast”? Well, I'm ashamed and embarrassed that I haven't posted since the 5th of last month...but life just seems to be so busy!

I've got a thought on my mind this morning. I heard the story from a few years ago about a man who found himself in an elevator with Chrysler’s CEO. Wanting to be pleasant, he asked, “You’re Lee Iacocca, aren’t you?” The CEO acknowledged that he was.

The man said, “Mr. Iacocca, I want to tell you how much I enjoy your television commercials advertising Chrysler.” To this compliment Iacocca replied, “Sir, I couldn’t care less what you think of my commercials. What I want to know is what kind of car do you drive?”

The bottom line in faith, in all honesty, is not what you think of the preacher or the music or the church or the carpet or the lights or…

The bottom line in faith is whether you’re a follower of Christ (or, at least, are in the process of coming to know Him personally)! We can admire certain aspects of religiosity, but do we love Jesus?

Until next time...and hopefully it won't be a month and a half!
