Faith & Love: A One Year Bible Reading Plan - Part 1

DAY 17 OF 21

Your life is perfectly positioned to make a difference. Jesus prays: "I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one." When it comes to working with culture in our world, the church has always taken different approaches.

Either we position ourselves against culture, and then remove ourselves. Or we become so infatuated and influenced by culture that the church ends up looking exactly like the world around us — and we have no impact or influence on the brokenness of our world.

The alternative is to align ourselves with the prayer of Jesus: we are in this world, but we recognize we find our life and sustenance from another. We are perfectly positioned!

We can be the people of God IN this world!

Our lives are defined by the reality and the truth of His word. Jesus prayed for each one of us: “Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.”

How can you open your faith and life to the reality of God’s words and His opinion today?
