Daily Feast Devotional - If I Were To Testify

"If I were to testify..."
by David C. Coleman

"If I were to testify on my own behalf, my testimony would not be valid. But someone else is also testifying about me, and I assure you that everything he says about me is true." - John 5:31-32

How true are these words from the mouth of Jesus? We can testify on our own behalf, but our words won't ring true with others until they can verify the authenticity of our words in action. We can claim to be one thing, but others often see through insincerity. Our witness is not in our words...but rather in our deeds. Let your life be a witness to Christ. Take up your cross daily and continue to grow into the image of our Savior.

Lord Jesus, I pray that the world will be able to see You in us rather than actions that betray our profession as Christians. May each and every person who claims to be a Christian be convicted and transformed through your love, your grace, and your Word. Create in us a clean heart that we may become a living testament to the life-changing power of Jesus Christ! Amen.
