Signs of change

If we are true Christ-followers, then we need to be prepared to undergo scrutiny. You may be wondering what on earth I mean by "scrutiny?" Well, I simply mean, we must be prepared for others to look at us and comment, "wow, she has changed" or "See how different that guy is - God has really changed his life!"

So, are we showing these signs of change? Can others look at us and then proclaim, "There is something different about them!"

"If conversion to Christianity makes no improvement in a man's outward actions – if he continues to be just as snobbish or spiteful or envious or ambitious as he was before – then I think we must suspect that his "conversion" was largely imaginary." ~ C.S. Lewis

"Being a Christian is more than just an instantaneous conversion - it is a daily process whereby you grow to be more and more like Christ." - Billy Graham

May the Holy Spirit work in us today in order to bring about some change. It may be small, but I pray that we notice the hand of God shaping our lives.
