Jesus Lord Of Our Hearts
“In your hearts, set apart Christ as
Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the
reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.” (1 Peter 3:15)
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
We are to be ready and
able to tell folks about the hope that Jesus has brought to our lives!
But when we share this hope, two things are important: our credibility
— is Jesus really Lord of our hearts — and our character — do we show
gentleness and respect in our persuasion approach.
The goal is not to win arguments but hearts to the God of
character!
My Prayer...
“Holy and Loving Father, thank you for speaking your grace in
Jesus.
I'm not sure I would have heard any other message.
Give me the conviction I need to share my hope in Jesus, but in
a way that reflects your grace.
Through my Living Hope I pray. Amen.”
