Are You Ready?

Are you ready?

As a follower of Jesus, He invites you to be a leader for Him, to build up His kingdom. He equips us for a life of joy, living for Him through serving others.

Just as Jesus first chose His disciples because they were already following Him and His teaching, He has already chosen you, fellow follower to be His hands and feet in this world! He knows your unique background, experiences, skills and personality. He is waiting for you to accept his invite. He has given us a manual for life and living (The Beatitudes). In Jesus’ teachings, He encourages us to realise our need for God, respond to losses, be gentle in spirit, hunger for justice and work for peace while being pure in heart.

In living this out, Jesus assures us of God’s blessings and provision. He promised His Spirit to be with you as you serve Him through your encounters with others – in our words and actions.

Are you ready to answer His call to serve him today?
