Focus:
To Reflect God’s Heart
Prayer:
Dear God, your heart and love for us shine through your deeds. You love us so much that you didn't abandon us when we wandered away. Instead, you chased after us. You gave your Son, Jesus, to save us. Today, we pray that you increase our love for others and ignite a passion for reaching out to those who are lost. Help us see the chances we have to share who you are with the people you have put in our lives. God, right now we specifically pray for (Insert names of people who come to mind or your Top 5). Give us opportunities to share with them. Use us to be a part of your story, we pray. In Jesus' name, amen.
Scripture:
“In the same way, there is more joy in heaven over one lost sinner who repents and returns to God than over ninety-nine others who are righteous and haven’t strayed away!” - Luke 15:7
Today's Next Steps:
Use the Top Five card (or the digital version in the CedarCreek app) to write down 5 names of people in your life who don’t know God. Put the list somewhere visible (or make it your screen background) and pray daily that they would decide to trust in Jesus.
