Today’s scripture: 1 Thessalonians 1:5-7
Did you know that as a follower of Christ you are the gospel on feet? That, through you, others see what it means to know Jesus? And that you are an example to other believers?
Does that fill you with joy? Or a bit of fear?
I believe it was St. Francis of Assisi who said, “Preach at all times. When necessary, use words.” I love that. Some of us are not gifted speakers or evangelists. We won’t fill a pulpit or teach a Sunday school class.
But we can find “joy of the Holy Spirit” when others see Jesus in us. We can live to serve others and glorify God. We can “preach” without saying a word.
What sermon are you preaching with your daily life? Is the gospel being told? Are you an example of Christ-likeness to other believers? Ask Jesus to shine through you so that His story is told.
