Are We Contagious.....

You wouldn't think getting a cold would give you something to blog about. But today Bill and I both woke up with terrible colds so most of the day we've been assigned to our designated couches. Throughout the sneezing and coughing fits, I began to wonder if our faith was as contagious as our cold. Get within 5 ft of either of us and you may go home with something you hadn't anticipated walking away with. Is it the same with our faith, what contagious virus are we giving to people that we encounter. We didn't ask for colds....didn't even anticipate them coming on, but yet here they are. When I meet someone what am I giving them.....more than they anticipated or something more viral. I remember the movie Outbreak, where the whole community became infected with a deadly virus, it spread like wildfire. WHY? Because there was no innoculation, no cure and no treatment for such a viral disease. How's our faith rating on virility.....are we mildly contagious or are we something that can't be iradicated. I want to be highly contagious, I want someone to be within 30 ft of me and feel how viral I am. I want to know that what I have can never be cured, never be innoculated. To the common cold I say thank you.....for the day of reflection.
