"Actions speak louder than words!" We've heard that saying so many times that we almost assume that it is a biblical one. While it isn't found in Scripture, it certainly has a great validity. The things that we do are usually more indicative of the kind of person that we are than the words that we utter.
When we think about God, however, that saying loses much of its meaning. With God, actions are not more important than words, nor are words more important than actions. For with God, the word is the action.
