One Chance Each Day

The past 3 days have been good, for God has honored my faith and choice to testify about Him in my life. Since last Sunday night, when I sat and prayed on my bed, making a conscious and intentional decision to re-commit my life to God, telling Him that I want to love Him and asking Him to give me just one opportunity each day to testify of His goodness or reflect a part of His character… God has indeed let this come to pass!

And since then, each day when I live through, I have been presented with one opportunity to testify or reflect His characteristic to my colleagues. Strangely, I begin to feel a warmth in my heart that I have not felt in a long time. A warmth that just comes forth from the willingness and joy of putting Jesus first in my life.

Thinking back, I have unconsciously begun to practice the ‘JOY’ example which Uncle John had shared with me last week. In order - J = Jesus, O = Others, and Y = You. By choosing to put Jesus first in my life and staying in view of His commandment to share about Him, I have slowly began to experience a quiet sense of joy which I just love! Praise You, Almighty God!
