Who are you when no one is looking?

Who are you when no one else is around? Who are you when you are all alone, and no on is watching you? Are you the same person that you are when you are around people? Do you show your Christ like ablitites just around other Christians, and be like another person when you are around someone else? DO you just pretend that you live your life for Christ when you are around people who you think that you should? Do you just ask Christ-like, because you think you should, and because that is what other people think?

If you want to be a true follower, you have to be the same Godly person around non believers, and around strong believers. You have to be the same Godly person, even when no one is looking. Because, if you are not the same Christ-like person when you are around non believers, they will not see God in you. But, if you do act Christ-like around non believers, then they will see that something is different about you, and that maybe they should do what you do too. And, always be prepared for them to ask questions about your faith, and you have to answer honestly. One thing about Christianity, is that you have to be honest. If you are a strong believer, you don't need to act like you don't know God at all, but, if you barely know him at all, you don't need to pretend like you know a lot about Him. You need to be honest with you friends when you know you have messed up, and you need to be honest with God too.

But, what I was talking about is, that you can't just pretend that you know God really well, but you really don't. You can't say that you spend hours reading your Bible, but you really don't. No one knows what you do when you are alone, but if you want to be a true follower of God, you have to even be the same person, a strong believer in Him, even when no one sees you, because God always sees you, He knows everything about you, and you can't hide ANYTHING from God!

So...Who are YOU when no one else is looking?
