Walking The Walk

Can I live like a Christian at school without looking weird?

God’s Response

It is God’s will that your honorable lives should silence those ignorant people who make foolish accusations against you. 1 Peter 2:15

Moses told his father-in-law everything the LORD had done to Pharaoh and Egypt on behalf of Israel. He also told about all the hardships they had experienced along the way and how the LORD had rescued his people from all their troubles. Jethro was delighted when he heard about all the good things the LORD had done for Israel as he rescued them from the hand of the Egyptians. Exodus 18:8-9

Moses told Jethro in conversation all that God had done. You can speak when it seems natural, but even more important is how you live. If your life reflects Jesus in you, many will be drawn to you. They will want to know what makes you different, and that’s your opportunity to tell them. But some of your classmates will definitely think you are weird. There are always some who will mock and even hate anyone who stands up for what is right and good. It happened to Jesus, and he warned that it will happen to you. Don’t let the people who love sin and evil influence you to live less like a Christian.

This Is Promising

We are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. 2 Corinthians 5:20
