S – Little children, let us not love in word or speech, but in action and in truth.
1 John 3:18 CSB
O – Commentary:
The true test of love is not one’s verbal profession of it (loving with words or tongue) but his willingness to help and thus to love … with actions and in truth
“1 John,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures
A – We can talk about what we believe and others will notice. Yet, when we do what we believe, others will see the integrity and character of what we say. Words are an important expression of what we deeply believe. When we couple our words and actions we bring the richness of what we believe for others to be impacted.
R – Heavenly Father, we worship you as the true God. Please help our words and actions to align. Give us the strength and courage to say what we believe and accompany that with actions demonstrating it. We want to be authentic with integrity in our walk with you.
