She never preached her faith to them
(At least not using words);
But the life they watched her live
Spoke a message they clearly heard.
She never quoted verses
To judge them or condemn;
But if they ever needed help,
She was there to be a friend.
She didn’t preach them sermons
(Except by the way she lived);
But, oh, they heard the message
Because her life reflected His.

Let your light so shine before men,
that they may see your good works
and glorify your Father in heaven.
(Matthew 5:16)
