Two-faced!

Day 13 Doxology: What a huge undertaken today's doxology is for me...not really!

My desire to be clean shaven has given me an opportunity to present today's doxology!

Over the years, all we've heard is the church is two-face/ hipocrites!  Is that true?  After great intellectual inspiration, I decided to look it up, and what I discovered is hypocrites is defined as two-faced, insincere or deceitful.

Is there something in your life that can be defined as insincere or deceitful?    For centuries the church has been the recipient of: "they don't mean what they say" or, "they don't believe what they say!"  In truth, at the end of the day, it's all about who can come to know the saving grace of Jesus Christ!

Back to the pic:  the world sees the church as two-faced -half bearded and half shaven and often partially gray!  They see a world of religion profiting very little against the world.  The churches that do this well are the churches that overcome the dead-fall that is built by the calamities of life.

Can we look through the dead-fall and convince our community that we are who we say we are?  Two-faced (Half-shaven) will do more harm than those near us that offer consistency in a darkness of distractions!

And, at the end of the day it might mean the world to someone else....if you realize that giving up a gray beard might mean an incredible supper with someone you love!
