Day 14 | Invest

John 15:16 NIV

 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.   

INVEST: Jesus reminds us that we are chosen and appointed to bear lasting fruit. This means living a life that reflects His love and leads others to Him. Our influence can make an eternal difference. As we invest in relationships and share our faith, we bear fruit that remains. Seek God’s guidance in your efforts and trust that He will use you to impact others for His kingdom.
