2nd Sunday After Epiphany

Second Sunday after Epiphany Texts: Isaiah 49:1-7; Psalm 40:1-12; 1 Corinthians 1:1-9; John 1:29-41
In a blog post penned by Delmer Chilton, a pastor authoring an article in Living Lutheran, he shares a memory of feeling lost.

His story is simple; an everyday kind of thing. It's an experience that could be dismissed as one that isn't worth sharing with anyone. When he reflected on this experience, he was reminded of a God-present life. A life that includes God's eyes set on him everyday, all the time, even when he might not be looking in His direction. The Gospel of John illustrates how John the Baptist told others about the Messiah. In telling them, they learned and followed Jesus.
How does this week's text apply to your everyday life?
Do you have a seemingly everyday experience to share with others that might lead them to the Lord?
