“Join with others in being imitators of me, brothers and sisters, and observe those who thus conduct themselves according to the model you have in us.” 
~ Phil 3:17 (full readings)
.
Scott’s Reflections:  I think we can all agree that by being active supporters of the culture of Life, we are striving to imitate Christ.  We all realize that there are plenty of people out there who seek to discredit our efforts.  We need to be vigilant about our behavior when representing the Pro-Life cause.  People notice our LIFE Runners gear, stickers on our cars, Respect Life license plates, baby feet pins, and crosses around our necks.  If they see these things while observing questionable behavior, it raises questions about all we support.  For example, we recently received an email from a concerned citizen about the seemingly erratic driving of a car with a LIFE Runners bumper sticker on it.  While it turned out that the driver was merely tired from a long drive, we were reminded how perception quickly becomes reality.

Faith Challenge:  The next time you put on your LIFE Runners jersey, think about how you would want others to act as ambassadors of Pro-LIFE and strive to make your day reflect that.
