The love of Christ urges believers to live with purpose, remembering that true faith is never without compassion. Every human need finds its fulfillment in Him: He is Living Water, the Bread of Life, our Refuge, our Value, and our Hope. To live in light of this truth is to embody mercy and goodness, meeting needs around us while pointing to the deeper hope found only in Jesus.

Jesus calls all Christians (which means, “little Christ”) to be involved in missions. Sometimes we think engaging in missions is only for certain people, but Jesus calls all disciples to the Great Commission. Sharing our faith with others, praying for others and serving others in the Name of Jesus is at the heart of the Gospel. There are so many needs in our world. We can’t possibly do everything, but we can all do something. How will you be involved in Jesus’ call to missions?

True leadership begins with leading ourselves under Christ’s lordship, so that we can serve others with humility. Spiritual leadership resonates with culture by living out the gospel with readiness for good, reminds us of our desperate need for grace, and refocuses us on God’s call to do good works because of the good done for us. Salvation is never random or earned—it flows from God’s love, kindness, and mercy. In Christ, our desires are not erased but redeemed and redirected toward Him. The world is hungry for this kind of leadership, and God is calling us to step into it.

God has called every Christ-follower to be a spiritual leader. Spiritual leaders lead by example. Our “walk” should equal our “talk.” If we say we are a Christian, then people should see it in our lives. As spiritual leaders we have a responsibility to pass our faith in Jesus on to the next generation. Let’s be the spiritual leaders God has called us to be and lead with confidence in the Lord. Our God is with us and He is for us. Leaders lead. Now is your time, so lead.

God’s call comes to each of us to be spiritual leaders today. Everything rises and falls on leadership. This is true in your home, your workplace, your school, community and church. God is calling out spiritual leaders “for a time such as this.” Our God is moving in a mighty way in the world right now. Revival is happening all around us. May we not miss what He is doing. May we step into the call He has placed on our lives and be spiritual leaders today.

Our God is a God of joy. God wants us to experience His joy and peace in this world. True joy only comes as we give everything to Him - all our worries, fears and concerns we lay at the foot of the cross, and know our God is Sovereign over it all. The result is a peace that passes understanding. True contentment comes in Christ and Christ alone. Will you choose joy today? Think about all Jesus has done for you and know that He will never let you go. You are forever His - your eternity is secure, your sins are forgiven, so let’s choose joy today.

What matters most in your life? In Philippians 3, Paul reminds us that true joy isn’t found in achievements, comparisons, or “good Christian” behavior — it’s found in Christ alone. We are called to rejoice in the Lord with a joy that defies circumstances. Paul warns against empty confidence, built on résumés, activity, or self-comparison. Instead, he points us to the greatest treasure: knowing Christ. Life with God isn’t about what we get from Him or do for Him — it’s about being with Him. When we slow down, tune in, ask honestly, and yield to His Spirit, we discover the deep, lasting joy that comes only from treasuring Christ above all.

God wants us to experience joy in this life. God created the world, and He created us. Jesus said, “I have come that you might have life and have it to the full.” John 10:10. True joy is only found in Jesus. Every day we have the opportunity to live for ourselves or to live for Christ. Every day, we face challenges, but with Jesus, we can choose joy. By the power of the Holy Spirit, we can experience real joy in all our relationships as we put Jesus and others before ourselves. God loves you. Will you live for Jesus, and will you choose joy today?
