Just Mannequins?! - June 3, 2005

Read Colossians 3:12-14.

Dear friends,

   

Bill Fuqua is famous for holding the record at doing nothing. He is in the Guinness Book of World Records for being perfectly still, motionless, for the longest amount of time. He is the Motionless Man, and has appeared at events and contests in malls and stores - as a living mannequin who dares people to just try and make him laugh or move.

In Colossians 3:12-14, we are told to put on the clothing of God, not so that we can just pose in windows, but wear it out in the world today. Clothing designs such as kindness, humility, compassion, patience, and gentleness are suggested. The Bible tells us to put these fashions on, and wear them for others to see!

It's been said that there are three kinds of people in this world: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who wonder what happened! Don't just stand there! Put on the clothing of God and head for life's runway - today!

God's blessings to you this day!

Andy Ross
