Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Jesús nunca quiso que dejáramos nuestra moralidad, influencia redentora o impacto amoroso sobre los que nos rodean. El propósito de nuestra presencia en el mundo es preservar nuestra cultura del decaimiento y para sazonar este mundo cruel con gracia y misericordia.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus never wanted us to give up our moral distinctiveness, our redemptive influence, or our loving impact on those around us just so we can be liked. The purpose of our presence in the world is to be the salt that preserves our culture from further moral decay, bitterness, spite, and other degrading social problems. And, we are to be the salt that seasons the bitter, dog-eat-dog world we live in with the salt of God's grace and mercy. We are to be the salt of the earth, disciples that prevent decay and bring the sweet taste of Jesus to a lost world.
Mi oración
Amado Santo y Majestuoso Señor, te pido que me ayudes a resistir en vez de conformarme a mi cultura. Utiliza mi manera distinta de vivir para bendecir a los demás y agrandar la influencia y el impacto de tu reino. En el nombre de Jesús, oro, Amén.
My Prayer...
Dear Holy and Majestic Lord, please empower me to resist being molded into the values of the world around me. Instead, dear Father, please use my distinctiveness as a Christian, a follower of Jesus, to bless others and expand the influence and impact of your Kingdom, doing so with gentleness and respect (1 Peter 3:15-16). In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
