It's contagious

Have you ever noticed how beautiful and glowing young couples look when they are truly in love? It’s almost like you read their hearts just by looking at their faces. They radiate a love, a happiness that can many times be contagious to those around them.

And it is also true that our actions, our priorities, even our body language, can reveal who we really are, what we believe in, and where our treasures lie.

Some people may be very quiet about their inner lives. Their sufferings, their heartaches, their concerns are hidden from the world but, yet, the love and peace of Christ still shines through for the whole world to see. They handle their crosses with dignity and trust in God’s help. They feed and are nourished on God’s Word, reflecting on that Word throughout the day.

We have all heard the expression, “You are what you eat”. Yes, to be fit and healthy, we eat foods that will not just satisfy, but nourish and strengthen the body.

There is also another expression, “you become what you think about most”. And today, this world is downright depressing, and we are being bombarded from every possible angle with the satanic beliefs of a world that is chaotic and collapsing. Many have been swayed by the media and social media to join in on this disorder to the point where these beliefs have now controlled their minds. God is no longer even a second thought.

Once a seed, negative or positive is planted in our mind, it can spread even unconsciously. That’s why it is so important to build upon the foundation of our moral beliefs; God’s beliefs, truly living by His Gospel.

“I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore, my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure”. Ps 16:18-19

God has made us so beautifully. He made us as a unified person with bodies to express what is in our heart. And he wants to be the center of our thoughts expressing that love in our hearts. He wants to be the object and the love, of what we think about most.

Don’t let this world and its allurements steer you away from inner peace, or from eternal salvation.  Rather, be the one who radiates the love of God, the face of Jesus. even through all the crosses you may bear.

So many people need our prayers. The world needs our prayers and our nation desperately needs, not only our prayers, but our support and our actions to keep God’s presence in America.

Let people read your hearts, just by looking at your face, a face that radiates the love of God.
