Not in the way, along the way.

Believing in God is not equivalent to being better than others. It doesn't give you bragging rights. It doesn't mean all you do is correct. People get pushed away from the path of believing everyday. Why?

You and me. We take on Christianity and wear it like label, a badge on our hearts. We claim to love God with all our strength, we say we believe in Jesus Christ. Yet we don't love. We don't do things the way God would want us to. It's not about being perfect, or achieving the best. It's about loving others. Making sacrifices so that someone in your life can get a chance to know God's love through you. 

The mistakes we make are what stops people from stepping into a church. If we do the exact same things any other unbeliever does, then where is the worth of our beliefs? The next time you think about spreading the gospel, speaking of Jesus to someone, start with your actions. Start with loving unconditionally. Start with being nice to people. Start with being friendly. Start with not being hypocritical.
