I choose not to place them on any of my vehicles but I like to read them. I like when they’re funny, pithy or sarcastic. I like the cleaver way they us words or pictures to make their point. I like the ones that make me think. As an extension, in most cases, of our personalities – allowing of course for the fact that 100s of others usually have the same sticker – I think they offer the car owner a lot in the way of personal expression.

Recently I have been struggling with many things. One is the fact that I am not more open about my faith. I am bothered that I do not share it as readily or as often as I should. I question my usefulness to my family, my church, my job and my Lord. I lament the fact that I have not climbed a mountain, been elected president, written a top 10 song or had my face on the cover a magazine.
“Wisdom of a Fool” is a blog I frequently read. TC does a great job of making things easy to understand, giving great detail and, often, giving me a much needed “KItP – Kick In the Pants.” This post is no different. In it she requests prayer for two Christ followers that live a way we simply do not understand here in the US – they live in fear for their lives for no other reason than they are Christ followers.
Do we place too much emphasis on the cross? Do we give it too high a place in our system of faith? I think in some ways we have placed it higher than Christ. One might almost consider it a “graven image.”
