3 January – 1 John 2:29-3:6; John 1:29-34

“The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.”

So, I shouldn’t be surprised that some people hurt me just because they don’t understand my faith? Shouldn’t I focus on what someone meant when they said something that stabbed me in the heart like a dagger?

Reach out with love for others and try to get to know the One Who gives true happiness. Get out of the closed circle of self-pity and believe that I am His daughter. And His children place their hope in Him. Let Jesus lead me and have a great desire to lead others to Him! Find the Treasure and be able to share It with others.

God, thank you that I am Your child. I ask You not to complain about the fact that the world often doesn’t understand me. Please, let my priority be to bring joy to others and lead them to You. No, not through moralising, but because they will see how beautiful it is to be the son of such a Dad!
