Devotions back - Friday - DO YOU STILL WANT?

I’m winnowing my list.

RESPOND “YES” if you

want to remain on my list.

If you do nothing, you’ll be off :)

I’ll try twice more after this weekend.

 

FALL FOCUS:

THE GOSPEL OF JOHN:

THE BELIEVING LIFE.

Today’s verse reveal’s the Gospel’s purpose:

“that through believing you may have life.”

 

+   +   +

 

AT THE VERY END of John’s Gospel (at the least the end before the postlude — which is chapter 21), John states his purpose in writing this “book.” His first purpose — as he states — is “so that you may come to believe.”

 

And why is believing important? That’s where John’s second purpose comes in: “so … that through believing you may have life in his name.”

 

He’s saying: FAITH equals LIFE.

 

Meaning: If your life needs a pick-me-up, then greater faith is the answer. This fall, what are you choosing to do to grow your faith and enrich your life?!
