The reason the world does not know Jesus may be because they have met us. The reverse can also be true: the reason they know Jesus is that they have met Him in us. It is a shame when we do not represent Him well. We must never forget whose we are and to whom we belong. We must never think of representing ourselves apart from Him. We want to be a bridge to Jesus. We do not want to be a locked gate that stops persons on their path to Him.
