Iron Sharpens Iron

Chasing 25

I am wrapping up the 2nd last chapter of Chasing Daylight. Just a reminder all previous emails are archived on the iron sharpens iron blog. www.robodaily.blogspot.com


EXCERPT:
“Is the activity of God so powerful around you that it compels others to join you? Do you follow Christ with such a passion that others are drawn to join the movement of God? Are you a God magnet? Do people watch your life and conclude, “Everywhere he goes, God shows up”? But you know that the more accurate description is that everywhere God goes, you show up.” Chasing Daylight pg. 224

REFLECTION:
I had a little BBQ get-together this week with a couple friends and we were all hanging outside cooking up some food chatting away, sharing a little here and there about this and that.   All of a sudden Daniel shows up... Within minutes of him being there we went from a calm collective gathering to a bunch of circus folk laughing our heads off for the rest of the night!
Dan is a great guy who brings so much joy and humor to any situation that you can’t help but join in.

Every one of us spreads our influence where ever we go. Some people I am around make me depressed, cynical, sad and others happy, inspired and passionate.  Whether we realize it or not we cannot turn off our influence... unless you go hide in a hole somewhere.

So I am realizing if I am going to always be influencing people, why not have experience God when they are around me. And the only way to smell, taste and look like Jesus to others is to continually chase after him and allow him to transform us more and more into his image!


Amen,

Have a great weekend.
