There is no life of following Jesus apart from good works, because whatever you worship you will become like. Good works are acts of compassion, generosity, and service. As a Christ-follower, you are gracious and compassionate to others because God has been gracious and compassionate to you. In Titus 2 and 3, Paul explains that you must be zealous, ready, and devoted to good works, because God can and will use you to bless others.
