WWJD

“What Would Jesus Do?” is a popular slogan that can be found on coffee mugs, Bibles, wrist bands, bumper stickers, tattoos (not sure, but probably), shirts, and the list of creative ways to market this saying could continue for eternity. This one motto has spawned others in both a serious (and comical) vein.
If WWJD ruled, what would our world look like today? Though the Bible provides many principles to live by, it doesn’t necessarily tell us what would happen if “What Would Jesus Do?” was a reality.
Here’s what I imagine would happen. Hopefully, world leaders would continue talking things out a lot more instead of blowing up lots of stuff, (and in turn murdering people).  Wouldn’t that make for a more peaceful Earth? Those people who are addicts to drugs, alcohol, and pornography might realize only Jesus can solve the problems they’ve tried so hard to avoid.
The attitude of “allow me to bless and encourage you” begins to spread (like a virus) over the entire world. Happiness would always be evident at your job for those who climb the ladder of success over you because it’s the right thing to do. Marriage partners would try to outdo the other one in make the marital union a joyful one

No one is asking you to make world piece happen. You can “pay it forward” by doing that one nice thing today for a complete stranger (as Jesus would). It feels good plus it’s contagious. You want to keep doing it. Give a WWJD lifestyle a try today
