An Influence

16 Then Memucan replied in the presence of the king and the nobles, "Queen Vashti has done wrong, not only against the king but also against all the nobles and the peoples of all the provinces of King Xerxes. 17 For the queen's conduct will become known to all the women, and so they will despise their husbands and say, 'King Xerxes commanded Queen Vashti to be brought before him, but she would not come.' 18 This very day the Persian and Median women of the nobility who have heard about the queen's conduct will respond to all the king's nobles in the same way. There will be no end of disrespect and discord. Esther 1:16-18

What speaks to me in this verse is that it shows that people are influenced by actions. When I say something wrong or do something stupid, it will be seen by all people and can sometimes have a influence on other's thoughts or feelings. When you are a leader, you will always be influenciong people. As a leader, it is your responsibility to show good actions, Godly actions because you may influence others. Also, as a Christian, you should do what Jesus wants because, although you may not see it, others may see you and be influenced by you.

Through this rhema, I see that I do influence others. I hope to be of good influence like the video I just watched, Glory Road. I want to be Christ-like, so others may know that the things I do and the things I say do reflect my character of Christianity.

Lord, I thank you so much for being in me and guiding me. Lord I pray that I be a Christ-like influence to others. I asked that you give me wisdom in my actions that I may reflect your glory. I thank you in all of Jesus name.
Amen.
