My Devotional

All of us have a favorite Bible verse.
Something that warms our hearts.
Something that encourages us.
Something that reminds us of the path God has set us here to do.
Something that gives us hope, security, and a sense of feeling loved and never alone.
To bare the fruit of the Spirit; love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galations 5:22-23)
To show humility and not pass judgement, "Therefore let us stop passing judgement on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way." (Romans 14:13)
To come as a child seeking to live life as if Jesus were standing next to us at all times. "The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children." (Romans 8:16)That means, "the inner testimony of the Holy Spirit to our relationship with Christ."
What would you share with others about your personal relationship with Christ?
Were you born with the desire to know and love him?
Did you seek him through knowledge?
Or did you come to know him through crisis?
Any way you have come to the Lord is your personal testimony.
"And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others." (2 Timothy 2:2)
"Disciples need to be equipped to pass on their faith; our work is not done until new believers are able to make disciples of others."
"You don't need to know all the answers in order to share Christ with others. It is important to tell them how he has changed YOUR life. Then trust that God will use your word to help others believe in him too."
