TODAY’S SCRIPTURES: “Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. ” Psalm 68:19 —– ” Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus.” Philippians 2:5 —– ” For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.” Philippians 2:13
TODAY’S MESSAGE: We all live for something. Some live for their desire to accomplish great things in the world. Others live for their desire to satisfy the demands of their parents or grandparents. Still others live to be recognized by those around them for the many achievements they have accomplished at their workplace or home. This is all well and good, but we should have a greater priority as a follower of Jesus Christ. Our lives should be overcome with the desire to live in harmony with the way Jesus lived his life. We should be a sound reflection of how Jesus lived on this earth. He was loving, caring, had compassion for the needs of others, forgiving, patient, humble, courageous, gentle, and had a servant’s attitude. All of these attributes are the way Jesus led his life on the earth. That is how you and I should be attempting to live our lives. Yes, it is nice to have accomplishments and be recognized by others, but our main focus should be on Jesus and how he lived. We are human and will not always reach our goals. When we fall, he is there to pick us up. We must remember that it is from our hearts that we live like Jesus and not by our humanity. It is by the Holy Spirit that we stay on the right path and not stray. When we represent Jesus, we are helping the Lord to help those who need him so desperately. Is it time to re-focus? How are you living your life? If you are not sure, then go back to the Lord in prayer and ask him for his help. He loves us and will not leave us stranded. He is always with us and there to pick us up when we fail. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
