Let Our Actions Do the Talking

“The works that I do in my Father's name testify to me.” - from John 10:25
Anyone who does anything of substance or significance is going to be subject to questions and criticism. Jesus had a lot of skeptics and critics.
None of us particularly like to be questioned or criticized. We have a tendency to want to justify ourselves, to rationalize our choices, and at times to become overly defensive.
Jesus shows us a different way handling such situations. While Jesus does offer concise explanations of his reasons and purposes, he doesn’t get bogged down wasting time and energy arguing with people who don’t want to be convinced.
He instead chooses to focus his efforts and energy on his mission. He never lets the criticism or slander distract him from doing the work he was called to do. He understood that ultimately his would speak for him.
Most times it’s best for us to let our actions do the talking.
