There are people all around you who have not yet heard the Gospel message. Ask God to place someone in your path today who needs to hear the Good News!
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada, and back in 1964, when I was a lowly high school kid trying to find my way, a few friends invited me to go on a Young Life weekend retreat. I didn’t know what it involved, but I signed up. Well, one night at camp, the speaker stood up and listed through the Ten Commandments, and he challenged us kids to measure our lives up against each one. And as I did, I felt so guilty. No way did I measure up. But that’s when he explained that Jesus came to keep the Ten Commandments, even when we couldn’t. And suddenly, a light bulb lit up my heart. “So this is what salvation in Christ means: he came to give his life so that I would have life!” Friend, there are people all around you who have yet to hear that simple, life-transforming message, so ask God to put such a person in your path today. Please tell them the Good News that saved you!
