Have you ever wondered why we let pronouns control much of our lives? Think about it for a minute. Sometimes we allow pronouns to dictate our actions; especially when it comes to our faith in Christ. Take the pronoun they, for example. How many times have we listened to they when it comes to sharing our faith? Or how many times do we worry about what they will think. They seem to take a lot of credit for our mistakes. I wonder what would happen if we never said, “well, that’s what they said” or “they told me it was ok”.
Here’s another great pronoun: he/she. Have you heard someone say something like this? “He/she did that, not me!” It’s easy to blame others and point fingers, isn’t it? Maybe we should use me a little more often.
There are a couple good pronouns: it and us. It refers to the Church and it is made up of us.
