Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy

Jesús nos advirtió que vamos a dar cuentas por cada palabra vana (Mateo 12:36-37). Pablo lo lleva aún más lejos enfatizando cuán importante es el asunto en relación a los que no conocen a Cristo. Queremos aprovechar cada oportunidad cuando nos encontramos rodeados por los que no son Cristianos, para demostrar bondad, cuidado y control en el uso de nuestras lenguas. Quizás el destino eterno de alguien descansa en nuestra conversación.

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Jesus warned us that we will answer to God for every idle word we share with others (Matthew 12:36-37). In our time when social media echoes with mean-spirited, ugly, and divisive words, we must hear the Lord's warning about choosing our words carefully. Paul also challenged us to be vigilant about what we say and how we say it. The apostle emphasized how significant our influence can be on those who don't know Christ. We want to seize every opportunity to open the hearts of unbelievers to Jesus. We must show kindness, demonstrate care, and exercise control in how we use our speech — to outsiders and our brothers and sisters in Christ. The eternal destiny of outsiders often rests on our conversations and actions with them. Let's season our speech with care, using gracious speech and kind words. Let's take advantage of every opportunity we have to open the hearts of others to the grace of Jesus!

Mi oración

Dios Santo y Justo, sé que no te complace cuando tu pueblo hiere y rechaza a los no creyentes. Ayúdame a tener una actitud buena con todos, pero especialmente con los que todavía no conocen a Jesús como Señor y Salvador. En su nombre oro, Amen.

My Prayer...

Holy and Righteous God, I know we sometimes break your heart when we, your people, wound and drive unbelievers away with thoughtless and insensitive talk and unkind posts on social media. Please help me as I seek to display a winsome attitude with all people, especially toward those who do not yet know Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Use my life and my words to open people's hearts to Jesus. In his name, I pray. Amen.
