2 Corinthians 5:20 (Memory Scripture)

You’re listening to ShareLifeAfrica! What would you say has been the most formative thing you've been told as a child? Did a parent instruct you "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you..."?

Did a grandparent tell you, "If you don't work, you don't eat?" Whatever it might be, as a child of God—it works just the same. The Words our Creator God gave us in the Bible changes us and helps us live a righteous life in obedience to Him. And through our obedience to grow in Him, we experience the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. As we let God's Word instruct us on how to live, we are transformedto bemore and more like Jesus.

So join us today as we memorize second Corinthians five twenty(2 Cor 5:20), "We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God." Download all of this week's memory verses at sharelifeafrica.org
