Yes, not long ago (let’s say 2,000 years ago) a young man became a model. Not for GQ but for Christianity today!!
The story of Paul has been a part of my reading these past few weeks. I’m constantly amazed at his patience and resilience. His physical endurance was amazing – apparently bow legged, with eyes that may not have been the best. At best he appears to have been small, but a huge personality.
And so, I’m examining the man for my own life’s sake. How can I live a life that reflects his reflection – that reflects His reflection? Paul said, “imitate me as I imitate Christ.”
Reading Paul’s story let’s me get some very tangible approaches to Christian living. I’m not so much concerned with traveling the world – but that wherever I travel I carry the image of Christ with me. What are your immediate reflections on who this man was? Have you heard about him, studied him, sought to understand him? Let me know!
