Episode 441 - Show Notes
- Today, I’m struck by the truth that you and I get to choose what kind of example we will be. We might not give much thought to our influence, but it would be wise to do so. Unless you are listening to this episode as you live in a cave as a hermit, you are an influence to others.
- You are an example to your family, your friends, and your work colleagues. You are an example to your neighbors, your classmates, and people you meet in the marketplace. The question remains: What kind of example will you be?
- We might be tempted to say, “Don’t look at me, look at Jesus.” While it is true we must all ultimately look to Jesus, every one of us should be an example of those who look to Jesus.
- Remember that throughout this day, you are an example everywhere you go. We don’t always get it right, but we can make a difference in the lives of others as we follow the example Jesus set for us.
1 Corinthians 11:1 - “Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.”
1 Timothy 4:12 - “Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.”
