Don’t Give Up on Your Loved Ones (Acts 15:12-35; I Cor 15:7) (James) ------------------------------------------------------- We need to be careful that we don’t come across as having “arrived.” Instead, we should share with humility because none of us deserve to be in God’s family. We should be amazed at how great God is and always have that tone when we share the good news. We should love them too much not to do all that we can to share Jesus – not because we are trying to fix them, but want to share Jesus with them because He is better than ANYTHING. If you have lovingly been sharing Jesus with your loved one, don’t get discouraged. Even if you don’t see it, the power of Jesus Christ is doing its work. Trust Him! Keep showing your “James” the savior. (Ro 6:4-5) God and Jesus want it more than you do. You are not alone. Application points: -- Don’t despair; keep on. (Despair doesn’t look good on Christians). Trust that Jesus still moves in extraordinary ways. He will bear testimony through you.. -- Show Jesus clearly. (They already see Him, but pray for an eye-opening moment. -- Salvation is the beginning. (Read the conversion story of C. S. Lewis)
