Are You Contagious?
Hebrews 10:25 (New Living Translation)
25 And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.
Jaida started preschool a few weeks back, and although she loves her new environment, she hates waking up in the morning. When she was in daycare I would drop her off at 615am still asleep and in her pajamas. Now, the time hasn't changed but the routine has. She has to wake up, get dressed, brush her teeth and get her backpack and be in the car ready to go. Morning has taken on a whole new perspective for her.
So anticipating some resistance, I decided I'd take a unique approach starting from day one. Even though I'm normally just as tired- - - - when I wake her up, I'm jumping and shouting. I'm so excited about her going to school and being a big girl, that within 5 mins or so, she's moving about and smiling. Sometimes we don't realize how contagious we really are. If you hang around negativity long enough, you'll become negative. You hang around people going nowhere and happy about it, pretty soon you'll be front seat on the train to no where too.
Jesus was in the presence of all types of people. All colors, religions, ages, and genders.........but at the end of the day he had his disciplines. His close circle was filled with, although imperfect people, men who shared his heart.
Today as we wake up to a new day, let's wake up with a grateful heart. Let's determine to catch the Jesus bug, and spread it all around. Be contagious...................but be something, people want to catch.
