It makes us more faithful.

It seems that one of the most effective ways is live a life that reflects the presence of Christ in us. Love and integrity are probably two of the most important aspects of that as we live among a shame based people. Sooner or later someone is going become curious about why we don't seek revenge (forgiveness), why we don't wash before we pray (already washed), why we don't pray five times a day (we live our lives as a pray). And, be patient! Remember "that no one comes unless the Father calls him" and "to always be ready with an answer". Yep, the message does not change.Ednoreply@blogger.com
