Behavior Reflects Belief










BEHAVIOR REFLECTS BELIEF


( COLOSSIANS 2:6-7 NKJV )

AS YOU HAVE THEREFORE RECEIVED CHRIST JESUS THE LORD, SO WALK IN HIM, ROOTED AND BUILT UP IN HIM AND ESTABLISHED IN THE FAITH, AS YOU HAVE BEEN TAUGHT, ABOUNDING IN IT WITH THANKSGIVING.



As Christians, we must do our best to make sure that 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 believers, quick to act whenever we see an opportunity to serve God.

English clergyman Thomas Fuller observed, "He does not believe who does not live according to His beliefs." These words are most certainly true. Like it or not, your life is an accurate reflection of your creed. If this fact gives you cause for concern, don't bother talking about the changes that you intend to make-make them. And then, when your good deeds speak for themselves-as they most certainly will-don't interrupt.



Obedience is the natural outcome of belief.
C.H. Spurgeon




- A Daily Proverb -
( Proverbs 20:11 Holman CSB )
Even a young man is known by his actions-by whether his behavior is pure and upright.

God'Creations









IN HIS IMAGE


( GENESIS 1:27 NIV )

SO GOD CREATED MAN IN HIS OWN IMAGE, IN THE IMAGE OF GOD HE CREATED HIM; MALE AND FEMALE HE CREATED THEM.



What is your attitude today? Are you fearful or worried? Are you more concerned about pleasing your friends than about pleasing your God? Are you bitter, confused, cynical, or pessimistic? If so, it's time to have a little chat with your Father in Heaven.

God intends that your life be filled with spiritual abundance and joy-but God will not force His joy upon you-you must claim it for yourself. So do yourself this favor: accept God's gifts with a smile on your face, a song on your lips, and joy in your heart. Think optimistically about yourself and your future. Give thanks to the One who has given you everything, and trust in your heart that He wants to give you so much more.



I may not be able to change the world I see around me, but I can change the way I see the world within me.
John Maxwell




- A Daily Proverb -
( Proverbs 4:25 NCV )
Keep your eyes focused on what is right, and look straight ahead to what is good.
