It's that time again.
A couple of the websites that I manage for churches went down yesterday. I got a nice note from the guy who hosts the sites for free because they are church sites.; saying he was working on it and it should be up in about 24 hours. I wrote him a nice note telling him that I appreciated his letting me know and all his hard work in getting it up again.
That got me thinking. Would I have behaved any differently if he was not (or if I did not know he was) a christian. My question is this. Do we behave more like Christians to other Christians, and if so why? In my case I sure do not believe I should treat non Christians any less well than Christians but maybe I do tend to act based on how I think I will be judged. Does the world have lower standards. Do only feel the need to behave in a way according to the standards that I perceive I will be judged. If this is the case then I am in trouble because I am forgetting that it is God that truly judges me. I am saved by faith but that faith should be pushing me to live up to a higher standard. No matter who I am interacting with.
Lord help me to live up to your standards and to always be a light to the world for You.
