We all are influencers. Every single one of us. If we
follow Jesus, we have been given a platform—whether it is in our homes, at the
office, at school, or even in the dentist’s office! Recently, a lady on social
media brought her over-stuffed, beautiful journaling Bible to the dentist’s
waiting room to Bible journal before her appointment. To her surprise, her
Bible gave her the opportunity to talk about her faith when she normally
wouldn’t have been bold enough to initiate a conversation about God. Her Bible naturally
opened up the opportunity to share about him.
Tyndale author Emma Mae Jenkins
invites young girls to step into God’s calling and live in ALL CAPS in her
amazing book, ALL-CAPS
YOU:
“To live in ALL CAPS is to give attention and to tune in to
the words that God has spoken, even when the words of the world sound loud. In
the Lord we lack no good thing. We are fully loved, fully chosen, and fully
known by God, therefore we can fully be who he has called us to be—we can truly
live our lives in ALL CAPS.”
Riley
is one of our Inspire
Prayer Bible
Ambassadors. We asked her to tell us a little bit about herself in the
interview below. She and so many other Bible journalers know how to live
the ALL CAPS life. We are ambassadors for Christ (VERSE) and God has chosen
people of all ages to draw others into greater awareness of his abounding love
and grace and truth.
Over the course of the next several months we are going to
shine the spotlight on some of our Inspire Prayer Bible Ambassadors as
a way to encourage all of us to keep living boldly for Jesus and to shine his
light brightly wherever God has us!

Dear

and encouragement that they will become closer to your Word, their faith will
grow strong, and they will become a Christian who rejoices in your Word. In
Jesus’ name I pray, amen.
May Riley’s story be an encouragement to stay in the Word,
on our knees, and eager to share the hope for which God has planted in our
hearts as we trust in him.
“This same Good News that came to you is going out all over the world. It is bearing fruit everywhere by changing lives, just as it changed your lives from the day you first heard and understood the truth about God’s wonderful grace.” Colossians 1:6
