Vessels of honor

In our homes we have a variety of utensils to which we give different uses, some of them are only to be displayed in a specific place in the house. These for their appearance and value captivate our eyes but that is all. And we ask ourselves, what is its usefulness? Why do we invest our money in such objects since we do not use them?

This is not the case in the Christian life, we as fine, beautiful and high-priced vessels, we are the ones that God wants to use to show the world his grace, power, love and mercy. He wants to transmit his light through us to dispel the darkness that has blinded the eyes of men and women of this generation that calls the bad good and the good bad (old-fashioned, old-fashioned)

I want to remind you that the word of God is alive and effective. And old without old age. The word of God tells us that if, then, you have risen with Christ, seek the things above where Christ is seated at the right hand of God (Col. 3: 1-2). To be used effectively by God we have to learn the process of Sanctification in our lives, the process of becoming more like Jesus in our behavior, attitudes and words. As in our homes, in God's house not all Christians are the same.

In order to be a useful Christian for honorable use, one must seek holiness.

Are you settling for superficial holiness?

Do you live in a different way when you are not in church?

Can your co-workers notice that you are different from others?

Are there familiar patterns that you can't change?

Are you honoring God with the totality of your being?

What are the temptations in your life? Have you learned to beat it?

If you are struggling with one of these questions, you can say a prayer to your Heavenly Father surrendering your whole being to Him. And as He speaks to you, take the necessary steps in the name of Jesus.
