Remove the Band-Aids

“It isn’t more light we need, it isn’t more truth, and it isn’t more scientific data. It is more Christ, more courage, more spiritual insight to act on the light we have.”                                                                      Benjamin E. Mays (1894-1984) American Baptist Minister; President of Morehouse College (1940-1967); 1st Dean of the School of Religion at Howard University (1934-1940); American Rights Leader

We’re just visitors here. Where we belong - things are done with greatness and for greatness! That’s our origin, and that’s what we have to offer in this world. Through Christ we are what you can call ‘spiritual transforming agents’. We are the vessels God uses in His work of saving souls. It all starts with Love, and Love gives us everything we need to operate in the light of His spiritual fruit. Our excuses are like band-aids we use to cover up the things we know we need to do – but we don’t. Come on – let’s remove the band-aids and be about our Father’s business. It’s up to us to utilize the tools we’ve been equipped with in Jesus. He has already given us everything we need to make a difference.
Romans 12:2a (NLT) Don’t copy the behavior and customs of the world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.
