Putting the Word into Action
As we end the book of II Chronicles we are reminded that God punishes sin but He also makes a way of restoration. People need to hear about God's plan to restore their fallen life. Take the opportunity this week to use your own testimony to tell someone how God restored you to peace with Him through the blood of His Son, Jesus Christ. After all, "blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God!" What better peace can there be than to have peace with God?
