S - the life was made manifest and we have seen it and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was the Father and was made manifest to us.
O - Not only did John know Christ with his heart he saw him with his eyes and touched him with his hands. So, how does this apply to me since I haven't seen with my eyes? Christ's life is manifested in everything. I see him through creation, intelligence, children, etc.
A - I'm very thankful for the manifestation of Christ in me especially through the Holy Spirit. I'm thankful that I don't rely on my conscience but on the Holy Spirit. SO my job is to proclaim that eternal life through everything in my life. If it isn't proclaiming Christ it needs to go.
P - Lord thank you for knowing that we needed the manifestation of you in us and around us. Thank you for John's willingness to proclaim you and testify to what he experienced because of you. Give me wisdom on how to throw away things that aren't proclaiming you in my life!
