Behave Around Others
To be a Christian, I have to be like Jesus Christ. To be like Jesus, I have to love like Him. He’s kind and gentle with others, believers and non-believers alike. Even to those who mocked and beat Him!
It’s tough to love others, especially when they don’t love me back. But it is commanded (Galatians 5:14). It’s what God’s love is all about. God uses others to mold my character and to test my faith.
How I behave around others is important too:
Live wisely among those who are not believers, and make the most of every opportunity. Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone.
Colossians 4:5-6
It’s all about love – loving God, and loving others.
