I want to live my life well, Lord, so others will want to know you.

Each person must live their life as a model for others.

~~Rosa Parks

This morning’s prayer and meditation for Sally’s healing comes from Take Heart, Oh God: Riches from the Greatest Christian Women Writers of All Time.

Sometimes we think we have to live our lives as society tells us to live. It’s easy to be drawn in by advertisements promising health, wealth, and adoring friends if we would just act a certain way, dress in these particular fashions, and use the latest buzzwords.

The trouble with living your life as society dictates is that you’ll be just like everyone else! You’d be a role model of . . . well . . . nothing special.

Here’s an idea: Why not make a point of living your life as the Bible directs? Looking to Jesus as your role model will certainly make you stand out from the crowd! And when you stand out as one who “walks the walk” of the Christian, others will want to follow. How you live your life will speak volumes about your faith, even when you don’t have a chance to say a word.
