Chatting with Jesus
Thursday, August 11, 2022
Lord, the book of Proverbs contains several truths about revealing secrets (Proverbs 11:13; 20:19; 25:9). Our prayer is we can be trusted to keep a secret. Things told in confidence will stay in confidence. But Scripture is clear what we are not to keep to ourselves:
Has the Lord redeemed you? Then speak out! Tell others he has redeemed you from your enemies — Psalm 107:2
Whether we come to You, Lord, as one who led a clean, moral and decent life, or one who lived like the devil, as Christ-followers we have a story to tell. You forever redeemed us by Your grace and gave us a new life. Gone is the old. We’re Christ-followers now, but for most, we still play an old game, “I’ve Got a Secret.”
Our personalities are unique. Some You hardwired as extroverts, others introverts. And because You made us this way, Your Spirit will lead us to people who need to hear our story. We do not need to have all the answers to theological questions they may ask, we just need to tell them that somehow, You changed us on the inside and we’re not the same. We have a hope we didn’t have before. We have a peace we can’t explain. And we’re just happier now that Jesus is in our life.
Jesus, help me to share my story of redemption with those who are seeking purpose and meaning in life, as I once was. Amen.
THANKFUL
