Being a Role Model Who Reflects Christ - Positive Influence

We have the opportunity to be impactful everywhere we go.

The Bible puts a big emphasis on being a positive example to others, as we are all called to be a light in the world to draw as many people as possible to Christ. As Christ-followers, we must live a life that reflects who He is, meaning His character & His love. 

We must live in a way that reflects who God is, and the teachings of His word, demonstrate integrity & love to others, and lead with righteousness in our actions & reactions with others. It should be our goal to imitate Christ in everything we do.

You might want a partner who has strong faith & dependence on God but lack that in yourself. You may want more people to be kind & compassionate to you, but are you TRULY giving that to others? Maybe you want certain people to spend more time with you, but if you aren’t making an effort to be with them first, you aren’t giving what you’re asking for.

The best thing we can do is continue to cultivate a deeper relationship with Christ, to better understand what He’s calling us to do & better know His character that we are working to reflect every day.
