94th Essential Passage of 100
Sometimes, life seems so difficult. You read the paper, watch the news, or even look at social media, and it feels as if the world is crumbling apart. Maybe it is. Everything we see seems to be the worst thing ever. It never was this bad. Maybe it wasn’t.
But when you read the Bible, it was bad. People were doing all sorts of bad. But that did not stop the work of God. He made sure that there were those who would go and share His love to those in need. Jesus did it. Paul did it. Peter and the other disciples did it. And today, we get to do it.
It’s hard to see the things in our time fall apart. But the reality is, if the world is crumbling, our job stays the same. Share the love of Christ with all we encounter. Through conversations, through positive acts, or simply being a good neighbor. It is not easy, and it probably never will be. But Jesus will be right there with us.
Prayer for the day:
Lord, help me to share Your love with others. Help me to set aside my wants so that I can be in unity with others in your fellowship. In Jesus’ Name, amen.
