Why Did Jesus Choose These 12 Men? 🙌 Acts 4:13
Personal Reflection:
Jesus didn’t choose the best. He chose the willing.
If you were launching a global movement, you might recruit scholars, influencers, or spiritual leaders.
Jesus chose fishermen, tax collectors, and doubters.
This week’s video dives deep into why Jesus chose these twelve very human men to carry His mission.
They weren’t perfect. They weren’t even impressive.
But they said yes—and that changed everything.
God doesn’t wait for us to be polished.
He transforms the willing—one small “yes” at a time.

Lord, thank You that You don’t require perfection—just a willing heart.
Help me to walk with You daily, even when I feel unqualified.
Let my life speak louder than my resume,
and may I say “yes” to Your call, one faithful step at a time.Amen

Even a whisper of His presence is worthy of praise.

🍯 Why “Daily Bread and Butter”?
When my son was little and learning the Lord’s Prayer, he used to say,
“Give us this day our daily bread and butter.”
I never corrected him—because honestly, it stuck with me.
It reminded me that our faith is meant to be both sacred and simple… something we live with every day.
Just like bread and butter.
This newsletter—and everything in this ministry—is a reflection of that prayer.
Daily bread for your soul. Daily truth to carry you.
And yes, a little butter, too. Because God’s Word doesn’t just sustain… it satisfies.
Come hungry. Leave blessed.
