Today’s Scripture: Then they told what had happened on the road, and how he was known to them in the breaking of the bread. Luke 24:35 ESV
Now what? Jesus has been crucified and raised from the dead. Re-reading all of the Gospels this morning there are varying endings to the four Gospels as to the different experiences and stories people had.
Same thing today; we each have had different experiences with Jesus. Whether we were running to Him or whether we encountered Him along our roads we each have a story. A story of how we came to recognize Jesus and what He said to us.
Like the two walking to Emmaus or the Mary’s going to the tomb we have encountered Jesus and He has asked us, no, He has commanded us to go and share the story He has given us.
What is your Jesus story? Are you telling it?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for raising Jesus from the dead. Thank You for proving this to me. I am thankful for how Jesus has appeared to me. I will tell my story and pray You will bless this and use me to help make disciples of all nations. Use me LORD to teach the commandments of the love of Jesus Christ. Amen.

I love the word: Story…when it comes to a persons life, the story that God is writing is their legacy. We all have one and each one is important to tell…Happy Monday Tom
Thanks Robin! Happy Monday to you!! I agree and I think we listen and believe the stories of others. After all it is our story, tell it….blessings!
There is no better story to tell. I was honored to be able to tell his story yesterday. Hope you had a great Resurrection Day.
Thanks Bill and so glad you got to tell it! Resurrection day was awesome and thankful for all the stories Jesus has created so we can help others find Jesus’ story in their own lives. He is faithful to speak and tell His story in so many healing and eye opening ways! Blessings!
I love to hear people’s stories of His love, grace and salvation power! 🙂 It gives my faith a boost! God bless you, Tom , as you boost someone today!
Thank you Debbie! Praying blessings as you tell your story as well! I agree there is a personal element where people go from “preaching at” to “sharing with” that takes Jesus’ story to the soul. Taking our relationship with Jesus into the relationship with the other person….being a “witness” to what we have seen and heard…blessings!
This is very good. So meaningful. Mother
Well thank you Mother. Glad you made your way here! Blessings!
Tom, this is beautiful!
How true: the love of Jesus is vastly universal and intimately personal.
We each have a powerful and personal Jesus story to share…
Beloved Jesus, I shall speak always Your story;
I delight in sharing Your Word, for Your glory!
To those who know You not, Lord, please do lead;
With them may I share Your love and sow Your seed!
May God bountifully bless you and your ministry! 🙂
Thank you Caroline! May God’s glory be seen and experienced in our stories of His grace, His love and His miracles! Blessings to you sister!
Thank you for getting our day off to a good start.
Thanks Mom!
