Enough To Convict?

Scripture: Isaiah 43:10-12 (NIV) – “‘You are my witnesses,’ declares the Lord, ‘and my servant whom I have chosen, that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he.  Before me no god was formed, nor will there be one after me.  I, even I, am the Lord, and apart from me there is no savior.  I have revealed and saved and proclaimed – I, and not some foreign god among you.  You are my witnesses,’ declares the Lord, ‘that I am God.’”

Message: I present, perhaps a silly question to myself, but perhaps not.  You may want to ask yourself the same question.  The question is as follows: “If I were convicted in a court of law for being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict me?”  

DNA will not be helpful with this conviction; I will need to prove motive and evidence of being a Christian.  I read my Bible, and, yes, you will find that I have used my computer to research different areas of the Bible and marvel at the different Bible versions, and the wording offered to share the same message.  

I try to be there for others who are in need.  First, I would admit and declare boldly to being a Christian, but would that be enough?  Would the evidence found be enough to support a conviction.  Do you have an answer?  I will continue to talk with Jesus to find additional ways to serve.

Prayer:  Lord Jesus, I humbly come to You in prayer. I pray that with Your help I am leaving enough evidence to be remembered as a Christian.  That the world around me will know I tried to walk in Your footsteps and that my love and devotion for You Lord Jesus, is as much a part of me as any other DNA.  Amen.
