Momma Told Me

Mother's Day reminds us of the power of a family invitation. Your family relationships can be life-changing bonds that provide spiritual strength and support.  We see that kind of impact recorded in the Gospel of John as John the Baptist prepared the way for Jesus to be introduced as the Lamb of God. One of John the Baptist’s disciples, Andrew, became a follower of Jesus after discovering that Jesus truly was The Lamb of God. He then told his brother, Simon Peter, about this discovery and brought him to meet Jesus.  Peter then also became a disciple and later the leader of the early church, all because his brother Andrew invited him to meet Jesus. What family relationships do you have that can help bring them to Jesus?

Take away:  Family relationships can be bridges to Jesus.
