Video of the Day: Clip from the 2000 movie “The Kid”

Bible Verse of the Day:

We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your[a] faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead,[b] do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully, Romans 12:6-8.

Biblical Connection:

If your honest with yourself, human beings experience days, months and years when things don’t make sense. Bruce Willis plays an image consultant inspired by the troubling life he endured as a child. When grown up Russ encounters Rusty the kid, he discovers all the emotions that he had suppressed over the years. However, Rusty’s presence helps Russ discover why he’s here.

In the beginning of Romans 12, the apostle Paul reveals the spiritual secrets to discovering God’s will for your life. Yet, from a more practical sense, Paul’s introduction of spiritual gifts provides insight into how God created you. Once you are able to ascertain areas, gifts and talents that you possess, you’ll have a clue to discovering God’s purpose for your life on earth.

Closing Song:

The lyrics of Average Joe provides clarity to developing a purpose in life. May the words of this song inspire you become like Joe and Sue, reaching others with the love of Jesus.
