In his letter to the church at Philippi, the Apostle Paul writes, “In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.” Can you imagine how different our lives would be if each of us acted like Jesus? The Apostle Peter described Jesus as someone who “went around doing good”. What would happen if whole communities decided their actions needed to reflect goodness toward each other? Violence, oppression, racism, bigotry and crime would disappear overnight. Imagine commuting on roads filled with no one but courteous drivers. Think about stores filled with polite shoppers and kind cashiers. Imagine schools populated with well behaved students and loving teachers. Think about neighborhoods of well-meaning, goodness-doing neighbors. Can you imagine a government chamber filled with politicians whose only concern was the goodness and welfare of their community? It could happen, but only when each of us decides to approach everyone with the same loving attitude Jesus approached people. Our goal here at Conway First Baptist is to encourage everyone to live like Jesus. As Louis Armstrong sang, "what a wonderful world that would be."
