If you take a course on writing or attend a writers conference, youll likely hear the phrase, Show, dont tell. In other words, show your readers what is happening, dont just tell them. Dont tell readers what you did; describe doing it.
One of the reasons we tend to tell rather than show is that its easier and faster. Showing how to do something requires time and effort. In teaching, its easier to tell students whats wrong with what they did than to show them how to do it right. The latter, however, is more effective.
For thousands of years, the Jewish people had only the law telling them what to do and what not to do. But then came Jesus Christ, who showed them how to live the life God had been telling them about all along. Jesus didnt just say, Be humble; He humbled Himself (Phil. 2:8). He didnt just say, Forgive others; He forgave us (Col. 3:13). He didnt just say, Love God and your neighbors; He demonstrated love by His actions (John 15:12).
Christs perfect example of love shows how great Gods love is for us and how we are to show His love to others.

Good evening, Mayor, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to The Mayor family.
Thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.
The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." -from THE BIBLE Romans 8:16-18
