Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love as Christ loved us ...
Ephesians 5:1-2a
The phrase, “What Would Jesus Do?” became popular decades ago. Shirts and bracelets imprinted with WWJD remind us that by asking the question, and applying it, can positively impact all areas of our lives. Jesus spent his earthly life caring for the lives of others!
A favorite pastime for me is crafting small squares of wood which I paint including the words, Hope and Joy. I attach a small cross and scripture verse. They are my gifts of encouragement to those I know need a reminder that someone else cares. We all have experienced hurt, either physical or mental, in our lives. Remembering what Jesus did for us, including his ultimate sacrifice, reminds us to think of others before ourselves.

Lord Jesus, help me to follow your example of love and compassion for others. Amen.
Reflect: Make a list of times when remembering WWJD helped you change your decision making.
