Actions speak louder than words

God’s people are called
To not only make a difference
But to represent the life of Jesus!
We are called to be different in the world
Not only to present but also to represent
The life of Jesus!
The world is more interested in what we are
Rather than what we can do or say
What we are speaks louder than what we say!
Before the apostles could share the light of God
They had to become the light they were to share
These were ordinary people whom God enabled
To do extraordinary things
Everywhere they went they were ridiculed
Opposed, persecuted and physically assaulted
For their beliefs: some were even put to death!

Jesus’ disciples   “turned the world upside down”
Acts 17:6
A revival of true godliness among us
Is the greatest and most urgent of all our needs!
To seek this should be our first work!

Every true disciple is born
Into the kingdom of God
As a missionary
He who drinks of the living water
Becomes a fountain of life
The receiver becomes a giver
No sooner does one come to Christ
Than there is born in his heart
A desire to make known to others
What a precious friend he has found
In Jesus: the saving and sanctifying truth
Cannot be shut up in his heart!
