Much More Than A WWJD Bracelet…

Even though Jesus is the most important person in history…

Even though Jesus is the Son of God and fully God Himself…

Even though Jesus is my personal Savior…

Even though Jesus means everything to me…

Can it be that I still don’t give Him the credit that He deserves when I set up my life and faith?
I was really thinking about for the past couple of months.  I think that I don’t try to pattern my life, my decisions, my attitudes, and worldview after Jesus very much.  I mean, I will wear the WWJD bracelet and try to do the things that Jesus did.  But do I try to live like Jesus lived?

How did Jesus live?  How did he set up his life?  What was his worldview?  How did he make decisions?  What were his attitude and actions?  …How did Jesus live?

Not only that, but when I think about my theology and faith – I don’t think about it in terms of Jesus.  Even with my theology, everything needs to revolve around Jesus.  The way that I think about church should revolve around Jesus.  The way that I think about missions should revolve around Jesus.  The way that I think about everything should revolve around Jesus.

My faith and my life should find its beginnings and endings in Jesus Christ: who He is, what He did, and how He lived.  My life and mindset and actions and attitudes should revolve completely around Jesus: who He is, what He did, and how He lived.  Everything in my life needs to be all about Jesus.

And that goes a lot farther than a bracelet…
