I'm going to do my best to remain on point today.
This includes an allegory about Christian credibility and my failures to spread the word. Then, it also includes fun Bo Bunny cards. Very different purposes, yet to me, connected.
A bible mentor of mine once told a parable of Flubeedoobee-itis, (or something like that). The gist of it is something like this: If I were to approach a person who doesn't know me and tell them that they had a new disease called Flubeedoobee-itis, they would think that I was absolutely crazy,...right. Well, that is often what happens when we approach people about the saving love of Jesus Christ.
However, if in the case of the person with Flubeedoobee-itis,...if they knew that I was a very reputible doctor who has cured many from various illnesses, they might consider this Flubeedoobee-itis as something that needs great medical care. So, that leads me to my point. Although there is nothing to know about me that will convince you that I am not crazy; if I don't reveal anything about myself, I will never be effective in helping transform lives to the acceptance of the "good news".
There is a testimony here. God kept me alive, againest the odds. Then, he has allowed me a full life filled with incredible blessings. My necessary response is to tell my story.
This is intended to be my first of many "Scripture Sundays". I hope to create cards with scripture or spiritual encouragement and tell a little of my story.
The card above is being submitted as a Bo Bunny blog sketch entry. The card below is intended for Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge #67: Make a card/project of encouragement or congratulations.
