Being a Christian is not an easy thing to do. In fact, some times it is quite difficult to act in a Christ-like manner.
Jesus said that we should "Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that
hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you ... Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect." Matthew 5:43-48
Christians are expected to live by a higher standard. We are charged not to give in to our sinful human nature. Whenever we are confronted with a situation, we should ask ourselves, "What would Christ do, or say, or think in this situation?"
Most of us are not as bad as we could be, but we are not as good as we should be. We need to pray to God to help us do, say and think the right thing much more often.
