Ephesians 5:1
Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children
You don’t lead by your words. You lead by your actions. Otherwise, every politician in the world would be the perfect leader.
OK, I promise this is not bash politicians day. I just wanted to make a point, that your words are great, but in the end, they are just words. It is what you do with those words that really counts. You know the old saying of a picture is worth a thousand words? Well, that should mean an action is worth a million!
As a teacher, I never just told the students how to solve a math problem. I showed them. I practiced with them. I was right there beside them and watched them. I guided them when they needed extra help.
God is the same way. He is not some being in the cloud that rains down do’s and don’ts and then punishes and rewards. No, He sent Jesus to show us the way. Jesus sent the disciples to show others. Now, He is sending you, to be His example also.
So, don’t just spout the Word of God. Live it! Show the World His example. Be His dearly loved child.
Lord, I want to follow Your lead and lead others by example, not my words. I want to be your dearly loved child. ~amen
