The world is watching how we live if we claim to be a follower of Jesus. At times, they may ask us why we do things differently or why we believe in Jesus. It’s important for us share about Jesus in gentle and kind ways, being an example of Jesus’ love for them. As we make daily choices that follow Jesus and show His love by the way we treat others, they will be able to see Jesus in us. God will use our life as a living example of Jesus’ love and others will want to know about the hope we have.
