Your Example

"What Example You Leave"
Scripture Reading:
1 Timothy 2:2 (HCSB) 
Lead a tranquil and quiet life in all godliness and dignity.

Devotional Reading:
Oswald Chambers advised, "Never support an experience which does not have God as its source, and faith in God as its result."  These words serve as a powerful reminder that as Christians, we are called to walk with God and obey His commandments.  But, we live in a world that presents countless temptations for adults and young people alike.  We Christians, when confronted with sin, have clear instructions: walk-or better yet run (like Joseph)-in the opposite direction.  When we do, we reap the blessings that God has promised to all those who live according to His will and His word.  As adults, we should strive to ensure our actions are accurate reflections of our beliefs.  Our theology must be demonstrated not only by our words but, more importantly, by our actions.  In short, we should be practical an conscientious, and quick to act whenever we see an opportunity to serve God.


Today, it's worth considering that your life-how you behave yourself in those day-to-day interactions with family, friends, acquaintances, and even strangers is an accurate reflection of your creed.  If we love God in our hearts, we will show Him in our lives!


Keep the Son in your eyes,

Pastor Ben J Lahay

Galatians 2:20
