“BUT THE PEOPLE WHO BELONG TO THIS WORLD DO NOT RECOGNIZE THAT WE ARE GOD’S CHILDREN, BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW HIM.” 1 JOHN 3:1
” DEAR CHILDREN, LET’S NOT MERELY SAY THAT WE LOVE EACH OTHER; LET US SHOW THE TRUTH BY OUR ACTIONS.” 1 JOHN 3:18
We are living testimonies for our Lord Jesus Christ. As we walk in this world others do not understand the love and compassion that our Lord provides us through His Holy Spirit. They have not had that personal relationship with him that provides the strength, wisdom and understanding he so graciously provides to us. They see things through the eyes of the world while we see things through the perspective of our Lord and Savior. However, we must not only be able to confess the ways of Jesus, but we must actually have the faith to live his ways. We must live in his promises. We must live one day at a time with each step we take being a step toward our focus of everlasting life. As we live our lives through Christ others will actually see how we believe. Yes, there will be those who scoff and call us names and may even try to harm us for our beliefs. Persecution was nothing new for Jesus when he walked this earth, and it should be nothing new for us. We must be consistent in prayer, praise, and meditation in His Holy Word. If we are we will stay focused, and our faith will continue to grow stronger and stronger each day. We must have the faith, believe our faith and live our faith. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
