"We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed." (2 Cor. 6:3)

The apostle Paul always considered what his actions communicated about his ministry. There is power in influence. Careless, undisciplined action can cause someone to reject Christ or become unfaithful. Faithful, energetic service leads others to the Lord. The best way to impact the lives of others is to demonstrate in practice what we believe.

Jesus said, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." (Matt. 5:16)
