I would much rather learn from watching a person’s walk than listening to them talk. ~Jay Meyer
Today, we continue our focus on the relational component of our Wheel of Life.
I believe a big reason for the world’s not so lustrous view of Christianity is that many Christians find God, they get saved, and then they try to stuff their beliefs down the throat of someone who is not able to receive them.
This does not mean we aren’t supposed to try to lead others to the Lord. But, as we all know, our actions speak much louder than our words.
When I was at my pits in life and was reaching for God and trying to find a better way, I thought about those around me who had it together, and most of them were Christians. It was in that moment when I conjured up the strength to talk with a couple of them. Why was I attracted to them? Because they had something I wanted. Their “walk” was attractive to me.
If you want to lead others to the Lord, lead with your actions and not your words.
1 Corinthians 2:14 (NIV), “The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.”
Additional Scripture: James 1:26, 1 John 4:20, Matthew 6:1
