What Is Your Name?
He that deviseth to do evil shall be called a mischievous person.
Proverbs 24:8
We are all given a name upon birth. However, we are often called by many other names over the course of our life. Many of these are based upon our behavior or presumed behavior. Solomon describes the actions associated with a mischievous person in the verse above.
What is your name? Do people recognize the love of Christ within you? Or is it hidden by the human characteristics of your life? It should embarrass us to bring shame upon Christ when we are perceived as something beside Christ-like due to our human nature. After his ultimate sacrifice for our salvation, the least we can do it is to demonstrate His love to others.
Carefully consider how others perceive you. They should see Christ vice our human nature. If not, we need to hide ourselves behind the cross so that only He is shown to others.
