Compelling Stories

9/10/2016

"For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again." -II Corinthians 5:14-15 (NIV)
In a conversation today, some of my students were discussing inspirational stories.  We often hear stories that inspire or compel us to try harder or be better people.  Some people overcome amazing challenges.  Others create and build organizations or inventions that impact people's lives.  The stories that my students were referring to and that we see posted around us can inspire us, but we shouldn't forget the most compelling story: the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ!

The love and sacrifice demonstrated by Jesus on the cross is a gift that is presented to everyone.  Knowing the events of Jesus' life can convince us that He died for all of us.  This gift, once accepted, is life changing!  His love, compassion, and mercy can show us how to live.  His dedication to God, the Father, can guide us in our own relationships with God.  We can be inspired and compelled to live in ways that bring us closer to God, closer to our fellow believers, and closer to those waiting to hear the compelling stories of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ!

Share the compelling story of Jesus Christ and help others be inspired and brought closer to God!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me and for giving me the example of Jesus' life and redemption through His death and resurrection.  Help me to live according to Your will so others can hear the compelling story of Jesus Christ, my Savior.  Through Jesus I pray, amen.
