"Should anyone ask you the reason for this hope of yours, be ever ready to reply, but speak gently and respectfully." 1 Peter 3:15 For Reflection: One way we can instill hope in others is to have our story of God's mercy in our own life ready to share with them. What is one way God worked in your life that gave you hope in the midst of travail? Work at putting this into a two minute testimony so you will be "ever ready to reply." Hint: Divide your story into three parts and pick the highlights from each. The three parts of your story should be "I was, Jesus did, I am" (See tomorrow's Grace Line for a passage you can use in your testimony.)
