This isn't going to be a light hearted, funny post, so if your in the mood for one of those,you might not be interested in this right now.
This is on my mind, so here it is: Whats on your shirt? Honestly, why is it there? Let me tell you a story.
Once upon a time, there was little girl who went to a casual banquet for her brother's team. During the course of the night, she found a team member she was acquainted with and they started a lengthy conversation. It seemed difficult, however, for her friend to maintain eye contact with her as they were talking. His eyes seemed glued to her shirt. She tried a number of subtle efforts to draw his attention back to her eyes. She asked him more questions, made more faces, snapped her fingers next to her face, and even took an occasional stoop into his line of vision. These worked... but only for a few moments. Later that night as she pondered this incident, she realized the problem. She had worn a shirt with an odd design on the front made in shiny sequins. The poor guy. He may have been trying to keep up eye contact, but the light hitting the design was distracting. The girl decided then and there never to wear that shirt again. She wanted people to look see Jesus in her eyes, not a design on her shirt.
So whats on your shirt? Is it drawing attention to Jesus or you? Just think about it.
