May Our Lives Speak More Eloquently Than Our Lips

While it's important to be able to articulate our beliefs intelligently, I wonder if we as Christians congratulate ourselves for finding clever answers to refute atheistic arguments, yet fail to recognize the more subtle arguments standing at the door of our own minds everyday that need to be "taken captive and made obedient to the mind of Christ". What a great diversionary tactic by the Enemy of our souls!

We know the truth, but do we live as though we believe it? For is it not in how we live, that proclaims what we believe? Do the atheists we seek to convince see the beauty of God’s sovereignty, His utter trustworthiness and compassion when they look at how we live? Lord, help us to speak more eloquently with our lives than we do with our lips...
