‘We…are being transformed into his image.’
2 Corinthians 3:18 NIV
You have probably heard the old saying about doctors and their prescriptions, ‘They can read writing, but they can’t write reading.’ A letter must be easily read and understood. Incomprehensible writing distorts the message and discourages the reader. The purpose of a letter is to convey the writer’s thoughts. When it doesn’t, the reader stops reading or fails to get the message. And since ‘you are like a letter written by Christ’ (v. 3 CEV), here are some common distortions you need to avoid:
1) Dishonesty on the job. That includes things like inflating your expenses, stealing company time, and taking home items you think won’t be missed.
2) A bad attitude. For example, resentment when a friend, fellow worker, or boss asks you at an inconvenient time to help them and go the extra mile.
3) Substandard work reflected in shoddy products and services.
4) Unreliability and inconsistency. Can you be counted on to be where you’re supposed to be and to fulfil your obligations?
5) Being a killjoy. Christians who lack a sense of humour and act like they are joy impaired hurt the cause of Christ instead of helping it.
6) Touchiness. How do people ‘read’ you? Do you wear your feelings on your sleeve? Are you easily upset? Do you overreact to unintended offences?
7) Temper tantrums. Are you crabby, grumpy, and complaining when things don’t go your way?
8) Self-righteousness. This can make you speak in supercilious, religious tones that turn people off.
Remember, you’re ‘known and read by everyone’ (v. 2 NIV), so make sure your attitude and conduct reflect well on your faith and your Lord.
