Living Words

Many people are probably aware of John's testimony of Christ, that he was the Word in the flesh, but have you considered what a living word is?

Many people talk of ideologies and morals, talk wisely and promote kindness and compassion, but it is necessary to practice what one preaches. It is by doing what we say that people see our actions. It does not always have to be grand gestures, but small things.

Regardless of creed, colour or race, we can all make a difference. By assisting people, our actions speak a common language, that of kindness and compassion. This universal language breaks down barriers. By doing rather than preaching, we set an example.

So we too can be living words.
"And the Word became flesh."
