One God - One Way

Happy New Year!

John 1:38-39
38 Jesus turned and saw them following and said to them, “What are you seeking?” And they said to him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are you staying?”

39 He said to them, “Come and you will see.” So they came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

For each of us who have given our lives to Jesus, how great would it be to start this New Year by asking Him the same question the disciples asked in verse 38 ?
Instead of presenting Jesus with our updated itinerary for 2024, how about asking Him where are you staying, where are you residing and working in my community by the Holy Spirit, and can I be a part of it?
Oh what a joy it would be to hear Him say, "Follow Me and Come and see."

To be a part of some ministry or work that brings Him pleasure and glory is to be serving His purpose, His plan, His itinerary - the salvation of fallen humanity.
And if you don't know Jesus as Lord and Savior, please invite Him into your heart and surrender your life to Him.
There is no better way to spend the New Year and the rest of your life than walking through it with The Risen Son of God, The Good Shepherd, leading and directing you into His plans for your life, His itinerary, His agenda, His Kingdom.
And when this life is all over, living with Him and God The Father eternally.

Please consider...
John 3:16
“For God so loved the world,
that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal.

Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1 John 1:8-9
8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Ephesians 2:8-10
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing;
it is the gift of God,
9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand,
that we should walk in them.

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Acts 20:34-35
34 You know that these hands of mine have worked to supply my own needs and even the needs of those who were with me.
35 And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard.
You should remember
the words of the Lord Jesus:
‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself,
so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus,
to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God.
Acts 20:24
