Thursday, November 15th: Ezekiel 37-39; 1 John 3 ~ Emma

Today's passage from the Bible In a Year Reading Plan is Ezekiel 37-39; 1 John 3

“See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭3:1‬ ‭NLT‬‬

This verse is very encouraging in the way that we can find comfort in knowing we are God’s children, but we also need to not give up on our secular friends and neighbours. They belong to a very hopeless world. They aren’t adopted in God’s kingdom, so they don’t have the security that we do. Use that as fuel to keep pursuing those friendships, and wanting to share the hope we have in Christ. 

Tomorrow's Bible In a Year PassageEzekiel 40-42; 1 John 4
