Proclaim Good News

And with many other words John exhorted the people and proclaimed the good news to them. — Luke 3:18

La Jolla Shores Beach

John was a powerful speaker.

He proclaimed the good news of Jesus wherever he went.

And people followed, listened to him, and turned from their sins.

He baptized them and prepared them for the coming of God's Son.

God asks us to tell others about Jesus, too.

I'm not always ready to do that.

God asks us to be prepared to explain to anyone who asks.

I'm not always prepared.

God asks us to love our enemies.

I often forget to love my friends and family.

Forgive, me, Lord.

Help me to obey You.
