    by whether his conduct is pure and upright.

Lesson Summary

  • A reputation is an important thing.
  • We need Jesus to help us live in such a way that people know us in a good way.
  • Even if we have earned a bad reputation, we must remember Jesus can change our heart.
  • No matter what people may think about us, it's important to follow Jesus and show it through your actions.

Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father,
Help us to lean on Jesus to show us how we should live.
Help us to live in a way that lets everyone know that we belong to you.
Even if we have bad reputations now, help us to trust you to change our hearts and in doing so, change other's opinions about us.
In Jesus' Name we pray.
Amen.
