What Would Jesus Do

Have you seen those bracelets that people have that say WWJD.  In case you haven't, it means What Would Jesus Do, and it is a great way to stop and consider your actions.  When ever presented with a difficult situation, just say, "what would Jesus do," to yourself and it will often guide you to the correct decision.  These bracelets give us a great opportunity to evangelize in our everyday lives.  The WWJD also can be reworded to better suit our day to day lives, but we can also use the words to take on a more selfish meaning.  We could say, Lord help me to be more like Christ, but this limits us to just act like Christ.  The gist of the saying is to do as Jesus would in a given situation. Jesus is a great model for our lives, he gave his life to us.  We are now to follow in his footsteps, we should aspire to be as much like Jesus and we can possibly be.  The idea of the phrase is to act as if Jesus was working through you, not just to follow behind.  We are supposed to be the example of Christ and act like we were Christ himself.
