Title: An opportunity to serve people
Set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity. – 1 Timothy 4:12b
Part of my job is sales. When I first started, I wasn’t very good. I thought I was a burden to the people I was selling to and just being bothersome. We really do have some of the best products in the industry and I finally figured out that I was actually doing them a disservice by not showing my customers all the ways I could help them out. I was hired to help them out, not just talk them into stuff.
Looking at this verse, it sure seems like a daunting task. There’sa whole lot to live up to. I just wouldn’t want to be a bother and lay all that pressure on people. Go figure huh?
This isn’t about a task though. It’s an opportunity to serve people and help them make wise choices and avoid mistakes. Be an example to those who look to you for that purpose. God put you in their lives for that very reason.
Real Men are examples.
