Thursday, June 3

Christ [left] a model for you to follow his steps closely.—1 Pet. 2:21.

 

What was your reaction when you learned the following truths about the Son? Jesus is the second most important person in the universe. He is our Ransomer. He willingly gave his life for us. When we show by our actions that we have faith in the ransom, we can have our sins forgiven, develop a friendship with God, and gain everlasting life. (John 3:16) Jesus is our High Priest. He wants to help us to benefit from the ransom and to have a close relationship with God. (Heb. 4:15; 7:24, 25) As King of God’s Kingdom, he is the one through whom Jehovah will sanctify His name, end wickedness, and bring eternal blessings in the coming Paradise. (Matt. 6:9, 10; Rev. 11:15) Jesus is our model. He set an example for us in devoting his life to doing God’s will. (John 4:34) When you accept what the Bible teaches about Jesus, you come to love God’s dear Son. That love moves you to use your life to do God’s will, as Jesus did. w20.03 10 ¶12-13

You can't walk with God while holding hands with the Devil.

Good morning!
 How do you feel when someone does something special for you? Perhaps it's a gift that you've desired for awhile or even just a spontaneous gesture. For me I get that warm and fuzzy feeling 😊! Just the fact that someone thought of me, makes me feel loved and appreciated. Now think of what Jesus and Jehovah gave us, the GREATEST GIFT we could ever imagine! It not only gives me the 😊feeling but motivates me to do all that I can to show my appreciation!! If this is how you feel, it may likely mean that you have to put your selfish personal pursuits on the shelf to give Jehovah your best!
Have a great day 😎

We should endeavor to become a true footstep follower of Christ because he left us a model for us to follow him closely.

1 Peter 2:21   In fact, to this course you were called, because even Christ suffered for you, leaving a model for you to follow his steps closely.
