Q: What did it cost you when you first decided to follow Jesus? What is it costing you today? Paul combines encouragement and prayer to call the believers to purity, community and faithfulness in the face of opposition. Who do you know right now that is facing overwhelming odds or circumstances? Write a prayer for them below. Then do something today to practically encourage or support them.
A: Well, I can’t say that it has cost me nearly as much as it should have to first become a Christian. I was raised in a strong Christian home, I had strong roll models that showed me true Christian love. Today, I don’t see much of any cost, actually I see things more as what I’m gaining. I know some people facing some seemingly overwhelming circumstances, but most of them actually know that what seems impossible or unsurmountable is possible with God running your helm. I think I need some more time to write a prayer, and I’m very tired right now so I will work on it later when I’m not tired. G’night.
