Explanation of the Change
Friends, I want you to know that nothing has changed about what I write or why I write. It’s still the same heart, the same truths, and the same message of God’s grace and His Mercy following me all the days of my life, you’ve come to expect.
I’ve just chosen a new platform for the newsletter.
Thank you for always reading, sharing, and encouraging others. Your support, taking the time to read, share, contact me, and comment, means more to me than I can ever express.
Every contact encourages me.
I’m praying this change will help the message reach even more people who need to hear about God’s love and mercy, and I’d be grateful if you would pray with me for that.
Now today’s article
Paul once said,
“For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more,” 1 Corinthians 9:19.
It sounds unusual to say, “I’m free, but I made myself a servant.” Most people spend their lives trying to be free, but Paul chose to serve. Why? Because that’s what love does.
Let Jesus change your heart and begin to see people in a new way. Instead of seeing them as problems to solve, you see them as people to love. Paul understood this. He didn’t serve others out of obligation, but because he wanted to. That’s what grace does. It sets you free and fills you with love for others.
Paul explained it this way:
“And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law... to them that are without law, as without law... To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some,” 1 Corinthians 9:20–22.
Paul was genuine. He didn’t pretend to be someone else or try to fit in by faking it. Instead, he cared enough to meet people where they were. He learned to speak their language, eat their food, and live in their world. He didn’t change the truth; he simply brought it closer to those who needed it.
That’s what Jesus did.
Jesus said,
“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost,” Luke 19:10.
He didn’t wait for people to find Him. He went to them. He sat with sinners. He touched the untouchable. He made the outsiders feel welcome.
That’s what we’re supposed to do, too.
People today don’t need more arguments. They need someone who cares enough to listen. They need someone who doesn’t judge them but walks alongside them. When people see genuine love, they begin to believe that God’s love could be real, too.
Jesus said,
“Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid,” Matthew 5:14.
Light doesn’t argue with darkness. It just shines.
That’s what Paul meant when he wrote,
“I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.”
It’s not about putting on a show. It’s about love. It’s about Christ living through you.
When you love people who think, speak, or believe differently from you, that’s when the gospel becomes real. It’s not about winning arguments. It’s about reaching hearts.
Paul ended his thought with this:
“And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you,” 1 Corinthians 9:23.
Paul wasn’t trying to earn God’s favor. He already had it. He simply wanted to share what he had received: grace, mercy, and love.
Wherever God places you, whether at work, at school, or in your neighborhood, let love guide you, don’t stay in your comfort zone. Reach out to others. Be curious. Be kind.
Sit with the lonely. Listen to the hurting. Love the sinner. That’s exactly what Jesus did for you.
When you live like this, every friendship can open a door for grace. Every conversation becomes a chance to show others that God has not given up on them.
You don’t bring God into people’s lives. You simply help reveal the God who is already there, reaching out to them through you.
That’s the heart of Paul’s words. And that’s the life Jesus invites us to live.
