Today we talked about the difference between wanting to be independent or being full of pride. How we sometimes focus more on boasting and bragging than actually being independent. We focused on Proverbs 29:23 and 2 Chronicles 26:16
"If we really want to be independent we will put our pride aside and know that independence is not all about self. It is not about being able to brag and boast about how well we do on our own. "
Day 136: How Are You?
Today we talked about checking in with ourselves. We talked about how we never really consider how we are doing when asked, we just say fine, good, or okay, even when we are broken on the inside. We focused on Ecclesiastes 3:4.
"We neglect ourselves too often, sometimes we have to sit back and consider how we are actually doing. What’s going on inside us, check in on our soul, see how everything is going. "
Day 137: Is it Worth It?
Today we talked about how, even though we may have everything we every dreamed of, if we lose our soul none of it will be worth it. We focused on Mark 8:36 and Matthew 4:8-11.
"Our soul is the very essence of who we are, it’s our heart, it’s everything that makes us, us. If we lose that what do we have? Who are we? "
Day 138: Representing the Cross
Today we talked about how our lifestyle should point to Christ. We talked about being ambassadors for Christ and representatives of His kingdom. We focused on 2 Corinthians 5:20.
"As Christians, we are meant to live a life that points towards Christ. We are to live our lives as Jesus lived His. "
Day 139: The Great Commission
Today we talked about the great commission and how God sends us on a mission to spread HIs word and lead people to Him. We focused on Matthew 28:16-20.
"We don’t have to be pastors and preachers to lead people to Christ. As we pointed out yesterday, the life we live should point to Christ. "
Day 140: Selfless Nature
Today we talked about being selfless and being able to put others before ourselves. We focused on Philippians 2:3-4.
"We must come to the realization that there are things and people that are more important that our concerns. There are more people out there besides ourselves. We must live is a world where we take a stand for one another, where we are concerned about one another. "
I love you, and I hope you have an amazing day or evening. Have fun today. Be sure to come back tomorrow for Day 143!
