Hebrews 12:  14 Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy;without holiness no one will see the Lord. 

Paul is warning the Hebrews that they are being watched. The others see their weakness and judge their God by the faults of His people.  Jesus faced the same sort of scrutiny and judgment, so we must follow his example. Others will see God through us. 

It's a hard thing to serve the Lord. We are judged and found lacking. We can't do anything right. People try to involve us in their drama. We must resist this, however, and live our lives as God wills. Then others will see our righteousness. 

Prayer:  Guide my walk, Lord, and help me to find Your way for me. Help me to maintain the peace.  Help me to be holy. Let my actions be a light to those who don't know You. 
Amen
