Do they see Jesus in me?

A song by Joy Williams touched me and questioned my actions and attitudes recently...

Many of the things we think, feel and even do can be highly shameful - not what we would want others to see. But when we truly check ourselves, we realize that we need to be like HIM, not the world....He loved us first and even showed us His love 2000 years ago on the cross, the least we can do is share His love that is in us, with others.
A little helping hand to someone struggling on the road...(although I always end up failing on this one)control your thoughts, especially those that displease God...A smile...
There are many ways we can reflect His light. Moreover, James says that mere faith is 'dead faith'...faith has got to bring forth actions...if we are saved by faith shouldn't the result of such faith reflect in the way we walk our lives? However, we have to make sure that we don't stop with just 'outward actions'. The Bible tells us that 'man looks at the outward appearance but God looks at the heart'...so how much more should we purify our heart?
In today's culture, it is increasingly hard to be and live a life of a true Christian...especially when unbelievers around you are aware that you are one; they expectantly look for 'Christ in you'! What is the kind of image we promote to them of Christ? If we say He loves us and hate a person...we certainly don't show His love to them...it will be obvious to those around, that you only 'talk the talk' but don't 'walk the walk'! Who would want to be impacted by Christ, when there is no difference?
We have to try our very best, asking God to help us and guide us to be different from the crowd; showing people a transformation, inside out! We've got to reflect His character in all that we do by becoming more like Him in every way possible. Easier said than done, I know, but anything is possible with the Creator of the universe, we gotta try. Let us together, show the world that Christ lives in us...lets be lighthouses to help guide in those in the storm towards our Living God!
