BE AN
EXAMPLE
Devotional:- Let no
one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct,
in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity” (V. 12).
Everyone involved
in relationship should seek to be an example. To be an example is to be a model
for what is right in the relationship. It is not enough for us to know or
always say what we ought to do or be doing in our relationship. It is very
important that we become doer of what we are saying. If you will not do what
you are saying, nobody will do it. The right mind-set is that, I must be in
front to do what I am asking others to do and not just do as I say.
The word of
God says we should be an example to all in word, in conduct, in love, in
spirit, in faith, in purity. A life that only want to direct others without
standing in front to be an example will soon be despised. With time, he/she
will no longer be respected. Some people that refused to grow to maturity as a
choleric, always want to lead but not by example. That way; no one will want to
keep doing what they are saying.
Friend,
there is no one made to be a slave for another. If you want people to follow
your instructions or advises, then be the first to do it. No one can build a
quality relationship or leadership when he is not an example. Please, be a doer
of whatever you want others around you to do. That is the way to raise godly
children. Peace.
PRAYER:
Lord, help me to be humble to always do what is right.
“ONLY AN
EXAMPLE CAN RAISE OTHER FAITHFUL LEADERS”.
