"Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins and turned to God." ~ Matthew 3:8
John the Baptist called people to more than words or ritual; he told them to change their behaviour. "Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins" means that God looks beyond our words and religious activities to see if our conduct backs up what we say, and he judges our words by the actions that accompany them. Do your actions match your words?
Live, for you have been saved. Rejoice, your life has an happy ever after. Be fruitful, your blessings are sure.
