What does it mean to lead by example? It means to demonstrate behavior that should be done instead of simply saying what should be done. You know the saying “Do as I say, not as I do” but isn’t that too hypocritical. You can’t expect people to understand you or respect you if your actions do not measure up to your words. Yes we all fall short of being good leaders at times, but everyday we should strive to be better than the last. Whether you are aware of it or not, someone is watching and admiring you. You do not have to have a specific leadership title, but there are people who admire certain qualities about you and are looking for yo u to be their guide. The bible states “Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity,” Titus 2:7. We have to be the models of good works, so my challenge to you this week is to lead by example. Instead of gossiping and complaining, or being quick-tempered, show that you have integrity and dignity and that you’re actions speak louder than your words.
