The Violet Connection 6

A Note From Pastor Brian

Who’s Your One?

I have always loved reading the Biblical account of Jesus calling the disciples, specifically when Andrew goes to his brother, Peter. and tells him they have found the Messiah. John 1:40-42 says, “Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who heard what John had said and who had followed Jesus. The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ). And he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas” (which, when translated, is Peter).” Andrew was someone who often introduced people to Jesus. As we start our summer, there are more people outside working in their yards, swimming at the pools, walking in the parks, going out to eat…. people that we will cross paths with all summer. My question is who will we introduce to Jesus this summer. Who is our one? The one we are building a relationship with, the one we are praying for, the one we are caring for, the one we are going to share the good news of Jesus with?

My challenge to each of us is to be an Andrew this summer. Introduce someone to Jesus.
