I can't believe it is day 20 of our 21 Day Challenge! I read this quote recently and I really wanted to share it with you. Just a simple thought, but it sure packs a big punch when you think about it!
"Its better to be a sermon than it is to preach one."
We've heard it many times before, that "you are the only Bible some people will ever read." It is so true! People are watching you! They are watching to see how you react in certain situations. They are watching to see what you say and how you live. You ARE a witness.... whether good or bad, people are watching you!
It's easy to run around and "preach".... but what REALLY matters is how you live. Just TELLING someone about Jesus may not be enough. You need to SHOW them!
***Read Hebrews 12:1***
"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us"
I encourage you today to think about the way you are living your life. What example are you setting for the Body of Christ? When people look at you and the way you live your life, do they see Jesus?
In your quiet time today, ask God to show you how you can be a better example to the life of Christ everyday. And remember, don't just TALK THE TALK- you gotta WALK THE WALK!
