Title: Don’t just talk – Do!

Scriptures: Proverbs 29:19

God’s Message/Promise/Commands:

Amazing day with Jesus!  Proverbs 29:19 says...

It takes more than talk to keep workers in line; mere words go in one ear and out the other.

How accurate is this truth?  I mean, the reality, most of the time, talking settle things but without trust, the words spoken will just passed by the person's ear.  For an employer and employee relationship, trust is very important.  It is not enough to talk to someone when they are losing their goal or way, it is crucial that a relationship was established for the "talk" to be effective.  Whether trust was established from a strong bond between them or was it established out of fear leaving the employee or employer no choice but to trust the other, it doesn't matter.  Only when the person decides to trust the other can a leader influence someone to do what's necessary or vice versa.  So what's the best way to build trust?  As someone in position, I say one of the major key to building trust is to "walk the talk".  Do as you say and be their role model.  People will respect and trust you when you are true to your words.

Happy Saturday!

Prayer:

Lord Jesus, thank You for the great message.  Help me Lord to build trust among my colleague, family and friends.  Help me to do as I say, to walk the talk and practice what I preach.  I am not perfect but I am able to do what I say with Your help Lord.  Give me the wisdom to walk the talk.  Build my influence to others by strengthening the trust of others to me and vice versa.  Help me Lord to be trustworthy and be Your ambassador because You walk the talk and practice what You preach.  In Jesus' Name, Amen!
