Regardless of our ethnicity, calling, spiritual gifts, or socioeconomic standing, Christ calls people to be disciple-making disciples, advancing His gospel, which is the power of God for salvation (Romans 1:16). We are called to share the gospel through our words and deeds, as we reflect Christ’s love, mercy, and glory in the world (Matthew 5:16; 1 Peter 2:12).
May we continue to marvel at the glory of God revealed in Christ and live as people who intentionally shine His light, empowered by His Spirit, in a world that desperately needs hope, peace, and salvation.

Sometimes bearing burdens simply means being present with someone in their struggles. Be quick to listen, slow to speak, pray with them, and offer biblical encouragement. Often, I have found that one’s presence alone is enough. Every person who is a follower of Christ is a temple of the Holy Spirit, and we need to let others experience the fruit of the Spirit in us—such as peace, kindness, and patience—especially in the midst of trying and stressful times.
