What character or story has influenced something you've done or a decision you have made? Explain.
The character that has influenced me the most in my life is Jesus Christ in the Bible. I try my best to live by His examples and be like Him. Ever since I was young, my parents have taught me to live for God and to learn from His life here on earth. My decisions are also affected because in everything I do I try to ask myself what would Jesus do? I remember when I was little I had a wrist band that had the letters W.W.J.D on it which was a great reminder in everything I did to put Jesus first and see what He would have done in a certain situation. I strive to continue to live for Him and to always remember what would Jesus do so I can keep trying to be more and more like Him.
Thats deep man, thats deep :D I admire you putting up this post. In a world that becomes more and more secular, you obviously love God to put this up. I think that the way you are living your life is awesome and people should follow your example :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post Joel. I agree with you, I also had that wristband when I was younger and was taught to live in the ways of the Lord. Even though I'm not the best example I do try. Its good to know I have a brother in Christ that is a great friend of mine.

It is enlightening to see a post like this, however concurrently disheartening to see all the rest of the world living lives in complete opposition to what Christ would do. While for every good there must be bad, and with light there must be darkness, that does not keep the disappointment, and sadness from entering our minds when we see others destroying that which we have been offered. I am really happy to see that there are still people who maintain a high moral standard.

Way to go Joel! I like how bold and straightforward you are with putting up your Christian beliefs. I find it sad how secular everyone really is becoming. Unfortunately it is becoming increasingly more difficult for people to even bring up Jesus or religion period without people immediately becoming offended or disputing you.
ReplyDeleteThis post is awesome man. I had that same bracelet when I was a kid. Even though I should get something like that again to set me straight, I still believe everyone should live abiding to His word and the example he gave in the Bible. Way to go Joel.
