RSVP – Please Respond to Jesus’ Invitation

he abbreviation RSVP comes from the French expression "répondez s'il vous plaît", meaning "please respond". When an invited guest receives an invitation with an RSVP it means that the guest must tell the host whether or not they plan to attend the event. RSVP means to politely respond if you're coming or not. It does not mean respond only if you're not coming. (The expression "regrets only" is reserved for that instance.) The RSVP means the host needs to know a definite head count for the planned event, and needs it by the date specified on the invitation. Please respond.

This year this blog will focus on a daily RSVP to Jesus. Every scripture, every story, every parable from Jesus and about Him is an invitation to each of us. How will we respond? 

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. John 1:1-4  

Jesus was the Light of men…He is the light of men.  

RSVP: Will you let Him be the light of your life? 
 
Prayer - Dear Jesus--Come light up my life. Help this new year to be one filled with spiritual insight, wisdom and understanding--passing from You to me. Light up my life.
