WORD

Empathy…understanding and entering into another's feelings (Princeton dictionary online)

This is something that we all need to keep in mind as we meet people every day that do not know the Lord or may be very young Christians. We need to remember that we were once just like them…without the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ in our lives. Grace fits into that concept, doesn’t it? It was by grace we were saved. Remembering where we came from helps us have patience to lead others to where we are.



Colossians 1:21-22 ( NASB )
And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds,
yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach—


Pray for those who do not know Jesus Christ as their Savior. Seek God to find out how you can be instrumental in introducing someone to Jesus.
