Scripture: Acts 8: [35] Then Philip began with that very passage of Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus.<\/p>\n
Observation: How many people have I told about the good news of Jesus? Each day I draw nearer to being with my Lord, but I\u2019m not getting busy doing His work. Instead of taking time out to do His will, I\u2019d rather relax or do what I want to do. He saved me for a purpose, to tell others about the good news of eternity and what Jesus did for us. What stopping me? Me!!<\/p>\n
Application: My purpose in my Lord must be first. Today I have an opportunity to counsel others and instead of whining about not being home or with my wife I should be honored that God would allow me to do this. I need to get up early and work out to strengthen this body to fulfill my purpose and to tell others the \u201cGood News.\u201d <\/p>\n
Prayer: My Lord I\u2019m weak and lazy, help me fulfill the purpose you have created in me. Give me strength to spread the good news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
