Faith

I note the talk radio, and talk shows, and political comedy giving commentary on everyone and everything. Inevitably faith will take a hit. I might reflect on the speaker's lack of faith, or the form of faith of the party ridiculed. But the bottom line is the best reflection is on my own personal faith. Billy Idol has released this single below, and at first it might seem disrespectful toward that which a christian might hold in high regard. However, that is unimportant compared to the opportunity presented to us by our Maker to reflect on how we regard his deity, not only in voice but far more importantly our actions.

It is very unimportant how a nonbeliever regards God, more important how we conduct ourselves in the presence of the God in whom we believe.
