Enjoy Life, Enjoy God

When you come to people's mind, what do they think?  When we are thought of, what is it that fills people's thoughts?

 
We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all his people--
                                                  Colossians 1:3,4 TNIV
 
The Colossians are "heard of," they are known for their faith in Christ, and how they love people.  That's quite a reputation.
 
To  be "heard of," to have a reputation is a lifetime work.  Ultimately I want a great reputation with my Lord Jesus, but I suppose that begins with how I am thought of by you.  Reputation-building begins today.
 
Joyfully,
