OUR WORLD NEEDS TO SEE JESUS!
Our world needs to see Jesus in us!
God’s two greatest commandments are to love Him with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. It’s impossible to have one without the other. To show love for God includes showing a genuine love for those who have been created in His image—no matter what color, creed, race, or nationality.
If we are truly walking with God with Him leading the way, we find that our love for God deepens as well as our love for people—even those who don’t necessarily look like us or sound like us and may have varying opinions in life.
“Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” (Ephesians 5:1-2).
When Jesus comes into a life, He changes everything. When you have been born-again from above, your address changes for where you will spend eternity. In Philippians 3:20, Paul declared that all believers are citizens of heaven and ought to live worthy of their new address. He also encouraged the Christians he was writing in the City of Colossae to walk in wisdom toward those who were outside the faith. In that way people could see and hear about the changes (see Colossians 4:5-6).
If you are a believer in Jesus Christ, tell someone about your change of address. Tell the world about Jesus—He is coming back for His own!
HIS love and mine,
Deborah
