Focused Quote by Matthew Robert Payne
““Therefore, ask God to make you “people-focused,”meaning to consciously look for ways and opportunities to be Jesus to those around you. This will require personal sacrifice and goes against the natural desires of our flesh. If we have a servant heart and rest in God’s enabling, then a pattern of good works will be evidenced in our life to His glory.””
