Daily Scripture - Chosen to Bear Fruit - John 15:16 (https://www.smartguy.com/) “You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit.” - John 15:16 Good morning, beloved of the Father! Before the sun rises, remember this staggering truth: Jesus chose you - intentionally, lovingly, for purpose. As you stir awake, say, “Lord, thank You for choosing me.” Over coffee, journal three gifts or callings He’s placed in your life - passion for justice, gift of hospitality, compassion for the hurting. Pray, “Help me bear lasting fruit in these areas.” Let this awareness shape your path to church, where in community you discover new ways to serve. During worship, listen for invitations to join ministries or outreach efforts that align with your gifts. After the service, take one step: volunteer to mentor a younger believer, join a mission team, or start a prayer group. Each action nurtures the fruit Jesus has called you to produce. When doubt whispers, recall John 15:16 and stand firm in your divine appointment. Today, live as one chosen and sent - bearing fruit that lasts for His glory.
