coward

so, i heard it again.

i'm such a coward.

everytime i hear it i shutter a little bit, and everytime i don't let it change me.

"a new command i give you: love one another. as i have loved you, so you must love one another. by this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." - john 13:34-35.

every person will know i'm a lover of Jesus by the way i show love to them.

that song, "actions speak louder than words" always pops into my mind when i hear this, or think about it.

how do i act?

i may know the words, or say them, but do i live them?

would people know that i am a follower of Him, by the way i lead my life?

i would sure like to think so.

i am not sure i understand why you shudder at hearing "coward"... why do you?

i understand about people knowing that i am a christian by my love and how i act. i do not think that i am doing the best of jobs letting people know that i am a christian. i regret not learning to love more. i am constantly trying to love, but it never seems to be where it should.
