Let’s get exposed!

Psalms 139:23-24 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

I recently read a story about a rather pompous-looking deacon who was endeavoring to impress upon a class of boys the importance of living the Christian life. ‘Why do you think people call me a Christian?’ the man asked. After a moment’s pause, one youngster said, ‘Maybe it’s because they don’t know you.’

I don’t know if this is a true story — but I’m sure we’ve all experienced hypocrisy in our own lives. Mark Twain said “We’re all like the moon, we have a dark side we don’t want anyone to see”.

Hypocrisy is a dangerous thing. It has turned a many a man away from the Lord to search elsewhere for answers. It can ruin an entire generation and more after them. But we have the opportunity to change those generations for the good of God’s kingdom! Those of us who know and love God must never stop allowing Him to search our “dark sides” so that we can more effectively be used as vessels to lead the hungry multitudes to Him.

Let’s come against the hypocrisy in our lives. Let’s ask the Lord to search our hearts today and uproot the things that need uprooting. Let’s give our all to God again. There’s so much work to be done!

We're being CENSORED ... HELP get the WORD OUT! SHARE!!!
