I Corinthians 1:17- “For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel.

 Remember to read “My Utmost for His Highest” for Today

 

PROCLAIM

 

If we complain about our burdens

Our cares, concerns and pain,

Then how can we find voice enough

To proclaim the Savior’s Name?

 

We proclaim about our taxes

Our kids, our work and our fame.

But when do we allude at all

To our dear Savior’s Name?

 

Lord, help us to keep focused.

May distractions fade away.

Help us proclaim the Love of Jesus

Who is the Truth, the Life, the Way.

JOURNAL JOTTINGS: What is your favorite topic of conversation? Do people know that if they talk to you sooner or later you will revert to your favorite topic?

Try making Jesus your favorite topic of conversation. Watch for creative ways to share your faith. Journal the times you creatively talked about the Lord and/or His blessings.

 

DEAR LORD, Thank you for being patient with me when I neglect to tell folk about You and Your Blessings to me daily. Help me to live my life in such a way that people will become curious about You. Help me to be a soul-winner this year. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.
