WK 3: Present with our Community - Day 6
Theme: Present with OUR COMMUNITY
Scripture: Matthew 10:16
“Look, I am sending you out as sheep among wolves. So be as shrewd as snakes and harmless as doves.”
Observation:
We aren’t meant to keep our faith to ourselves. I love this verse where Jesus is sending out the disciples. And he is honest. It might not be easy so they are encouraged to be sheep among wolves. To be gentle and teachable even if they encounter hard times. Even if they encounter scary things (like wolves). Sometimes simply doing the right thing can be hard, depending on what we are doing or who we are with.
Prayer:
Jesus, thank you for encouraging us to go out into the world. Thank you that you don’t sugar coat the truth but acknowledging that it won’t always be easy. Thank you that you are with us through it all.
Application:
Have you been avoiding a hard conversation? Is there someone you don’t want to run into at Walmart? A family member you need to reconcile with? This week, ask Jesus to give you an opportunity to connect, to repent, to make amends. Maybe its a meet up. Maybe its a text. Ask Jesus to go before the conversation and surrender the rest to God.
