Can one person make a difference for God?
July 15, 2024
Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.” -Matthew 16:24-25
Can one person or family make a difference for God? A family in Kenya thinks so and is doing their best to help others know Him. Here’s their story:
“Ever since I discovered the Bible teaching, my family has sat together and learned. It’s having a positive influence on my two sons; I see how they love God and are transformed each day into men of faith. We now gather with friends as we listen to the teachings and we talk together regarding what we have learned. This helped us know Jesus Christ in a personal way, and we are growing as a community. In our home we are committed to Matthew 16:24—we choose daily to take up the cross of Jesus and follow in His footsteps. We pray we will inspire many more to join us.”
It’s true. We don’t need to be rich or famous or powerful to influence others for God. Through His Spirit we can impact those in our home, our neighborhood, our school, and our workplace. As you pray for this family in Kenya and ask the Lord to draw more to study with them, think about how you too can be a difference-maker in your corner of the world.
