First Impression

"For when you see me, you are seeing the one who sent me." John 12:45

When you meet someone for the first time, what is their first impression of you? Are they seeing a genuine you or a deceiving you?

Do they see Jesus immediately?

Do you think it's possible for a stranger to sense something different about you?

This is not only my prayer for myself but for my family, especially my boys. As school approaches I pray that every new friend and teacher my boys meet will sense Jesus in them.

I pray Avery and Dax will be able to discern between those who have a love for Jesus and those who don't. I pray their love for all will be great, but that their desire will be to surround themselves with friends who encourage them to be the best for the Lord they can be.

And if your wondering, YES I believe without a doubt that at age 6 and 3 God can and will give them the discernment they need.

First impressions are huge, especially as a follower of Christ.

Jesus may we leave a lasting first impression on those we meet. Shine through us in such a way that people walk away wanting to know what makes us so different. For then we can share You and Your love with them. Amen
