Hi, I’m John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you’re listening to Share Life Today.
In the past month, my grandson had his birthday, and upon receiving his gifts, he said, “Wow! These are so cool I can’t stop being grateful!” We chuckled at these heartwarming words from a seven-year-old, but isn’t it just profound? When we are given good gifts, we just can’t help but be grateful. And we have received good gifts from our Heavenly Father–of first importance, the gift of salvation! He promised a Messiah who would come take away our sins, and He fulfilled the promise of salvation through Jesus to all who would put their full trust in Him. We have seen God’s goodness and faithfulness through Jesus, and we can also cling to His other promises that He’s made for us. The result is a heart ready to believe God at His Word and fulfill His purpose for our lives. Let’s obey Jesus by following His Great Commission to us to go and share the Gospel with our communities and families! For help, visit www.sharelife.today.
