A daily meditation for young Christians

Dear Young Christian:
I think everyone who is saved will admit that a Christian should be a Christian in conduct and speech as well as in name. Otherwise how will the life of Christ be seen in us, and how will we give testimony as to our salvation for the blessing and salvation of others?
The Lord gave very specific directions to the man out of whom He cast the demons, with a slight difference in the two gospels in which the event is mentioned.
“Go home to thy friends, and TELL them how great things the Lord hath done for thee” (Mark 5:19).
“Return to thine own house, and SHOW how great things God hath done unto thee” (Luke 8:39).
On the one hand he was to tell them of his wonderful experience with the Lord Jesus, on the other hand he was to show by his actions that he was healed and was now a follower of Christ.
These two things should characterize our day-to-day life as well.
Your Christian Friend,
Jim Hyland
