Everyone
The whole earth will acknowledge the Lord and return to him. ~ Psalm 22:27a (NLT)
He wants not only us but everyone saved, you know, everyone to get to know the truth we’ve learned... ~ 1 Timothy 2:4 (MSG)
KEY THOUGHT:
God is interested in the salvation of everyone.
PRAYER:
Gracious God, thank you for including me. I confess that my vision is way too narrow. I'm only interested in reaching people who are like me. Expand my vision and passion. I'm going to join with you in welcoming the whole world to join up with Christ. Amen.
