# DAY 14 | LIFE AS A LETTER TO THE WORLD ## žcentering thought “We are the letters God sends to the world, letters that disclose that there is a God, and that he deeply cares …” ## encouragement from God’s word Read: 2 CORINTHIANS 3:2-3 ## devotional direction If the statistics are right, then today, you will make upward of seventy decisions. Some will be inconsequential—what you wear, what you eat, which route you take to work. Some will be consequential—whether you choose to manifest peace and patience and kindness and goodness with those you encounter. But all of these choices will matter. They will matter because to some extent, you and I are the sum of the choices we make. Each choice tells the world around us what matters to us, who or what we worship, and to whom we believe we belong. Written on our daily decisions, attitudes, actions, reactions, assumptions, presumptions, and words is a missive to anyone watching … a “letter” with something to say. The question we have to grapple with is, How will the letter of our life read? Will our life serve as a note of encouragement to a world so desperately in need?

The Spirit of the living God longs to pen poetry on your heart today, stunning stanzas of reassurance for you to carry to those you meet. Will you quiet yourself long enough for his message to get written to you? Then, will you faithfully broadcast those words? ## question to ponder If your life is in fact a letter, then what message will it deliver today?
