Would My Life Cause You To Sin and Stumble

Would My Life Cause You to Stumble?


If you were to follow me
24 hours a day,
would my lifestyle cause
you to wander and stray?
Would my way of living be
a stumbling block to you?
Would my commitment to Jesus
be loyal and true?
I hope that a Christ-like example
you would find,
Giving Jesus not a little…
but all of my time!
I pray that in 
my way of living,
you’d find a heart filled with joy,
love and giving!
May Jesus be my ultimate
thrill and treasure!
As he conforms me to his
own will and pleasure.
May a Christ-like life 
in me be a certainty.
Not just today!
But for eternity!
