Ever heard of a camelion. It's a cool lizard that can blend into its surroundings to keep from getting eaten. That's a pretty cool backup to have if you are a lizard that does not live in an aquarium, but not a cool trait if you are a Christian. A recent study by a group called Mosaics found that 84% of those born between 1984 and 2002 knew at least one committed Christian, but only 15% of this same group could tell a difference in lifestyle between themselves and this Christian. Are you one of those friends who calls themselves a Christian but does not have the lifestyle to back it up. 2 Corinthians 3:18 says that "we are being transformed into His image." That means that each day that passes in the life of a Christian should find them looking more and more like Christ. I pray that today, your non-Christian friends will clearly see Christ in you.
