Reflecting Christ

Reflecting Christ in our daily lives impacts. One of the easiest ways is through love. Jesus commanded us in John 13:34 (NKJV), “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.” Showing genuine love and compassion to those around us reflects Christ’s heart and draws others closer to Him.

Another way to reflect Christ is by practising kindness. Small acts of kindness, such as helping a neighbour or offering encouragement, can make a significant difference. These acts show Christ's love in tangible ways, demonstrating that we care for others just as He does.

Living with integrity is also crucial. Being honest, keeping our promises, and doing what is right even when no one is watching reflect Christ’s character. Integrity builds trust and shows that our faith influences our actions, setting a powerful example for others.
