Devotion~ March 6, 2019

 Joel 2:1-2~Sound the alarm that the Lord is coming. 

Ps. 51:1-17~A sinners prayer for forgiveness and restoring joy of salvation
* 2 Cor. 5:20b-6:10~ How we as God's ambassadors should act.
Mat. 6:1-6, 16-21~Give alms, fast and pray in secret so that the God who knows and sees all can reward you. 

Read 2 Cor. 5:20b-6:10

There was a woman who presented the Gospel to the drug ring of a city in the USA. Those people got scared that the woman would turn them into the police, so they beat her up & filed false charges against her. She was visiting her family in a different state when they arrested her. That state decided to allow her to return back to the state that she lived in after her vacation was over. When the time came for her to go back to turn herself in. She made sure that she went back dressed up, for she knew that she was presenting herself as an ambassador of Christ. For she knew that how she acted from this point on could undo everything she had been trying to accomplish for Christ up to that point. 

We too, need to be careful how we act as people are "reading" the Gospel according to how we live. So what does the epistle according to you read?
