not perfect

Part of my confession is that I don't always do a good job of representing Christ in my actions,my speech,and in my thoughts.As a branch I don't always abide in the True Vine Jesus Christ.I get get angry with the things I see happening around me,with the way others treat people,and I let that anger affect how I go about when i interact with others,with my speech,my actions,my thoughts,but in the way I dill with that anger is not a healthy way to deal with it.As a follower of Jesus Christ i am called to not conform to the ways of this world ,I am to show Christ to others,and to represent him in this world.This may not be the best example but,say someone was out representing you for a baby sitting job ,the person out telling people about you and your wonderful baby sitting skill and how loving and honest your are ,is a person you watch for their parents when they were a child.How would you want them act an represent you? I could go back an forth on ways you would want them to represent you,and what you would so on,and I just threw the baby sitting thing out because when I was younger my mom kept a friend of ours Grandson from when he was a couple of months old till he was about 4 maybe 5 .As followers of Jesus Christ we are his Ambassadors ,the way we act,think talk on the phone or in person to others should be with the love of Christ.Another example I was Children's center Ambassador for the Lady of the Lake,as a Ambassador what I did was help make the families and the patients feel welcomed and let them know that they loved and that we were there for them to show our support for them in their time of need.
