A lot of times we think that when we as Christians are involved in public ministry - that is when the Lord needs to shine out of us. That might be as we worship on Sunday, teach a Sunday school class, are on worship team, doing a vacation Bible school or on a mission.
But in reality, you are your best witness when you just go about leading your life - going to school, work, with your family.
Paul said this in 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 "and aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may live properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one."
People are watching you. How you react in times of trial is important. How you treat your wife, parents, children, friends and neighbors matters.
Just remember that wherever you are you are a representative of Jesus Christ. That ought to change how we act, don't you think?
