Actions really do speak louder than words. Sometimes, it’s easy to say the right things but harder to live them out.

I came across a quote one day that really challenged me. It said, “Who you are speaks so loudly, I can barely hear what you’re saying.”

Actions really do speak louder than words. This quote made me think about who I say I am as I’m driving in traffic, waiting on a slow sales clerk, deciding to return a shopping cart to the store or leave it hoisted up on a curb in the parking lot.

Sometimes, it’s easy to say the right things but harder to live them out. So, today I’m going to think about my actions more - especially when my schedule gets tight, my energy runs low and my temper gets triggered.

I think I’ll pray and ask God to give me the courage to make the kinds of choices that honor who He’s made me to be.
