Thought of the Day

“Radical obedience to Christ is not easy... It's not comfort, not health, not wealth, and not prosperity in this world. Radical obedience to Christ risks losing all these things. But in the end, such risk finds its reward in Christ. And he is more than enough for us.” ― David Platt,

"There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; 10 for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his. 11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience." Hebrews 4:9-11

Father, thank You for providing an escape from the tyranny of self. You are the only One powerful enough to conquer my flesh, and I willingly submit to Your ways today. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit instead of my selfishness. Let my life truly exude the aroma of Christ, even when pushed, pressured, and threatened with loss of autonomy or comfort. I know that Your ways are higher than mine, so I thank You that You made me and that You know and want what’s best for Your children. I yield myself to You in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.
