Living It Out This Week

The most wondering season of all is here: Advent/Christmas! But sometimes we must admit it is also a hard season. Hope is needed when life is hard. Hope will keep us moving forward. Hope is essential. May these verses help the hope of Jesus reside in you.

Sunday-John 3.23-36: How can we live out the example of John the Baptist? What would it look like for us to decrease this Christmas? Pray that Jesus is amplified this month.

Monday-John 1.1-18: The story of Christmas as told by John (if you ask me that is). What are the seeds of hope in this passage we need today? Focus on the truth of Jesus.

Tuesday-John 1.19-28: Hope continually looks forward to something greater, better. How is John laying the foundation for all to realize the greatness of Jesus? Where can we do the same, today?

Wednesday-John 1.29-42: This is at least the third time in this chapter John points to who Jesus is. We must persevere in sharing Jesus with others. Once is not enough! Faithfulness is the key ingredient to the Gospel.

Thursday-John 20.20-23: Oh, how easy it is to compare! Yet, Jesus wants us to remain focused on what He has called us to do. How have you compared yourself with others this week? How do you compare others to you? Our faith is not individual, but it is also not a comparison trap.

Friday-Romans 5.1-8: Hope is the byproduct of other ingredients; it does not come first. Yet, because of Jesus’ birth, death and resurrection we know hope never fails.

Saturday-John 3.30: Join us in worship tomorrow! Pray for our worship tomorrow. Pray that our eyes would see the Lord! Invite someone to church.
