Don't lord it over the
people assigned to your care,
but lead them by your good example.
Every Christian is a leader, particularly to those who don’t know the way. In Luke 6:39 Jesus gave the following illustration: "What good is it for one blind person to lead another? The first one will fall into a ditch and pull the other down also.” You are tasked by the Word to lead people who are in darkness to God’s marvelous light and the best way is to lead by your good example. 1 John 1:7 says, “But if we are living in the light of God's presence, just as Christ is, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from every sin.” Your good example can lead the lost to God. Can you think of a time when your good example had an impact on someone who was lost?

The best way to share the Good News is to LIVE it :)
I pray there is a time where someone else can say my good example brought them closer to God.
