We have been looking at Jesus who is our teacher, which involved His words,deeds and example. a certain politician during the pandemic appeared on the TV stressing the importance of certain things,but he himself did not do what he said,it was a case ,do what I say ,but don't do what I do. When it all came out it was not long before he had to resign,he had lost the peoples confidence, and respect.Our dear lovely Saviour lived as He spoke,there were no inconsistences in His life,no one could call him a hypocrite.That is the challenge that we who are Christians face,I remember hearing about a minister who said ,'they are watching us',and indeed they are. As the non-Christians look on us what do they see?,as our family looks at us what do they see?. We are not talking about being a person pleaser, but one who pleases God, there is a big difference ,our lovely Saviour always did that which pleased His Father,that should be our aim in life. We need not be to concerned if people are unpleased with us,because we stand for truth,and when we live a holy life,in doing so , we are walking in the footsteps of our Saviour ,Lord and teacher.
