—John 1:40-41 NLT
Key Thought
Did you notice the first thing Andrew did? He searched and found his brother and told him about Jesus! When we see Andrew in the Gospel of John, he is always bringing others to Jesus. Shouldn't you be an Andrew, too? Who is someone with whom you would like to share Jesus? Why not pray daily that the Lord will open that person's heart and help you see the opportunity to share your faith and Jesus' grace?
