Run For God Week 5: If you have to ask…
Story: “…And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” –John 8:32 (KJV) • There are some things that you will not understand until you have been there and had a chance to experience it for yourself. • Your relationship with Jesus can be liken to an endurance run…there’s a depth of experiencing Him that comes only as a result of having endured-regardless of weather, pain, people’s glances, whispers, and snide remarks. • When you finally submit to Him and stop struggling, you will find yourself experiencing the most powerful and loving embrace you’ve ever known. • Jesus will weave His replies into the fabric of our lives in different ways and at different times. • We are different; we are endurance athletes. There are those who don’t understand us. In much the same way; we are followers of Christ. There are many who don’t understand us. There are many who insult and despise us. But endure, the experience of truth is well worth the battle. • Jesus said He is the Truth, and, “you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free…” • Story by Donna Douglass, www.donnadouglass.com
Discussion • Have you experienced God in your life? • Have you stepped aside from the busyness of life to reflect on what God is doing in and around you? • Do you listen for His voice in His Word, and then watch for His promises to manifest in your life? • How can you help someone else experience God?
