Our job description

Scripture

1 John 5:1 “Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God. And everyone who loves the Father loves His children, too”.

 

Observation

Everyone. Not just good people. Everyone. Jesus creates the opportunity for everyone to be adopted into God’s family. Upon entering the family through the acceptance and belief in Christ an introduction is made to the Father and He creates an environment of care and love that extends through His children to everyone.

 

Application

It is so important to remind myself that I am a child in the family of the Almighty Creator himself. As I accept Christ as my Redeemer I have the privilege of becoming a son, an heir of Gods family. My role, my responsibilities as a son are given to me by the Father – to care for all of His children. This becomes my job description as a Christian.

 

Prayer

Lord, I pray that through my actions and efforts as your son many more sons and daughters are born into your family. You extend grace to “everyone” and therefore my job description is to do the same with the hope that they too will believe.
