Tonight we attended the musical The Rock & The Rabbi. It got me thinking again about Jesus and how I can best be a witness for him. Many things about him are inimitable. There is no chance that I will ever walk on water, calm the seas, or ensure abundant catches of fish. In brief, all the miracles of Jesus from healing the sick to turning water into wine are beyond anything that I could possibly do. However, one thing I would really like to do that Jesus did is speak the truth with simplicity. If I could achieve a fraction of what he did in this regard, I would be very happy. I want to live in the spirit of Matthew 5:37 (NIV): Simply let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No’; anything beyond this comes from the evil one.
