“Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.” — John 7:38
In Acts 4:13, we read, “And they recognized that they had been with Jesus.” After reading that Bible verse, I began to wonder, “Can the people I’m around recognize that I’ve been with Jesus?” Unless I’m willing to live a life that shows something different from the average person in this world, those around me may never know what a difference Jesus has made in my life … and can make in theirs.
So, what does it take for people to recognize that we’ve been with Jesus? Let me share just a few examples. When the storms of life batter our lives and we have peace in the midst of the trials, that shows we've been with Jesus … the “Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:6). When we go out of our way to help people and care about them, that reveals that we’ve been with Jesus Christ … who “was moved with compassion” (Matthew 9:36). And, when we’re willing to boldly step out to declare our faith or testify of the Lord’s goodness to us, it also demonstrates that we’ve been with Jesus … “the Lion of the tribe of Judah” (Revelation 5:5)!
Don’t settle with being tossed about with the waves of circumstances. Choose to boldly step out of your comfort zones to encourage, testify, pray for, or help others! Spend time with Jesus and then let Him take you on the most exciting journey of your life!
