A Ministry of  One (you !!) To be “A Tongue-Tied Christian Example” 
Mark 16:15  and 16
                 And he said unto them, Go  ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.  16 He that believeth and is baptized shall  be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 
ITimothy 4:11 These things command and teach.  12: Let no man despise thy youth;  but be  thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in 
                 charity, in spirit, in  faith, in  purity. 
Matthew 5:16 Let your  light so shine before men, that they may see 
                 your good works, and  glorify your Father which is in heaven.
I’d rather see  a sermon than hear one any day;
                 I’d rather one should walk with me than merely tell  the way.
                 The eye’s a better pupil and more willing than the  ear,
                 Fine counsel is confusing, but example’s always clear;
                 And the best of all the preachers are the ones who  live their creeds,
                 For to see good put in action is what everybody needs.
I soon can  learn to do it if you’ll let me see it done;
                 I can watch your hands in action, but your tongue too  fast may run.
                 And the lecture you deliver may be very wise and true,
                 But I’d rather get my lessons by observing what you  do;
                 For I might misunderstand you and the high advice you  give,
                 But there’s no misunderstanding how you act and how  you live.
When I see a  deed of kindness, I am eager to be kind.
                 When a weaker brother stumbles and a strong man stays  behind
                 Just to see if he can help him, then the wish grows  strong in me
                 To become as big and thoughtful as I know that friend  to be.
                 And all travelers can witness that the best of guides  today
                 Is not the one who tells them, but the one who shows  the way.
One good man  teaches many, men believe what they behold;
                 One deed of kindness noticed is worth forty that are  told.
                 Who stands with men of honor learns to hold his honor  dear,
                 For right living speaks a language which to every one  is clear.
                 Though an able speaker charms me with his eloquence, I  say,
I’d  rather see a sermon than to hear one, any day!!!!
