Storyteller: The Parables of JesusSample

Reflection

Today you have the opportunity to catch up on reading and to take time to reflect on what you have read and learned.

The parables of focus throughout the last week paint a compelling picture of a life lived in response to God’s presence and our relationship to Him and others. A deep and constant connection to Jesus drives and motivates us into action in honor of our King and His Kingdom and protects us from the possible pitfalls we may encounter.

A few questions to consider…

Am I plugged into the ultimate source of power? If not, what are some practical steps I can take each day to stay connected with Jesus?

Are my actions motivated by fear and duty, or do they come from a vibrant relationship with Jesus? How can I cultivate a lifestyle marked by unceasing joy, love, and prayer?

How is God calling me to walk with Him along the narrow path each day?

A prayer moving forward…

Jesus, may I experience and be changed by Your radical love so it overflows out of my life toward others. Amen.
