Gospel gems – Follow Jesus’ example

For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. John 13:15 

Jesus constantly showed by example how we should live as Christians. We are here to serve others. It may be hard in some situations but it is doable. The purpose of serving is to show others the love of Christ.

Christ served with compassion Matthew 14:14
Christ served with kindness. Luke 17:11-19
Christ served the “underdogs” Matthew 9:11-12
Christ served with love. John 13:34
Christ served with gentleness. Matthew 11:29
Christ served with mercy. John 8:1-11
Christ served unselfishly. John 3:16

Is there something you can do for someone? Don’t procrastinate – just Do it!

Have a blessed day,
Donna

Jesus is God, the Bible bears witness to this fact by the following verses:

Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. John 8:58 

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. John 6:35 

Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John 8:12 

Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. John 10:7 

I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.  John 10:11 

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: John 11:25 

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6 

I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. John 15:1 

And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. Exodus 3:14
