What it’s like to be a Christian

I received this from a co-worker that I thought was very appropriate for today. 

“What’s it like to be a Christian?”

“It’s like being a pumpkin.  God picks you from the patch, brings you in and washes all the dirt off of you.  Then He cuts off the top and scoops out all the yucky stuff.  He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, and greed.  Then He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside of you to shine for all the world to see.” 

While I realize this illustration has it’s flaws, I think you get the idea.  God has chosen you and transformed you on the inside, which others see.  You can trust Him on that one!  

The point is that while we were still sinners, Christ demonstrated His love for us through His death on the cross.  Your sins have been washed away through the blood of Christ.  Read Romans chapter 5, verses 1-11 today.  Thank Him for choosing you, walk in the light of His grace and know you are loved!
