Christmas Lights

Have you ever rode around a neighborhood during Christmas season to see the Christmas lights put up by people who take the time out to string lights and decorations for all who chose to take that slow ride by?  Most of us aren't that committed, therefore, we pile-up in the car and venture out to get that taste of Christmas season without having to put in the effort.
Is that what we are doing within our walk with God?  This faith walk is not only meant for us but for others to also partake.  Many don’t want to put in the work, but would rather see someone else exhibit the light(s) and decorations of a blessed life; and we wonder why the blessings that are spoken of in his Word have not produced the same fruit.
I don’t know about you but I want to be an inspiration that leads others to seek out Christ because of the way I display my life and walk with Christ.  We have to keep living for God – no matter what!  We have to continue to do good, even when it appears that life is kicking us to the curb.  We have to continue to want to grow in God and seek new experiences, in order that we do grow in faith – and sometimes that means going through some things that we’d rather not. 
Christmas lights indicate to whomever comes by that this house is in the Christmas spirit.  And that is how we are supposed to live our lives, that our life is exhibiting the Spirit of Christ.
