VERSE:
Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse
you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on
the day he visits us.
-- 1 Peter 2:12

THOUGHT:
How do we win over to the Gospel of Christ those who are hostile
toward us? While we need skilled defenders and expositors of
biblical truth, the way most of us will win others is by the way we
live and by the way we treat them. No matter how much criticism and
harsh treatment we may receive, our deeds must remain Christ-like.
To do less is to rob others of a chance to see the living Christ in
action.
PRAYER:
Holy and righteous Father, please forgive me for not being more
aware of my influence on others, especially those who do not know
Christ. Please fill me with your Spirit and strengthen me so that I
can stand up under the criticism and scrutiny that sometimes comes
my way. Help my life to impact others so that they may see the
truth of what I believe and the hope by which I live. In Jesus'
name. Amen.
