ON TRACK

DEUTERONOMY 10:12 (MSG)
So now Israel, what do you think GOD expects from you? Just this: Live in his presence in holy reverence, follow the road he sets out for you, love him, serve GOD, your God, with everything you have in you...

1 JOHN 2:5 (CEB)
But the love of God is truly perfected in whoever keeps his word. This is how we know we are in him.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
We can know that we're spiritually on track if we're serving God and living in the way that he sets out for us.

PRAYER
Thank you, loving God, for showing us how to live and mature in our relationship with you. I confess that I'm pretty good at tricking myself into believing I'm in good shape spiritually. I can give all the right answers and advise others on what the Bible says, all while I'm woefully off course in my own life. Don't just show me what I need to do but please take my hand and lead me forward. That's the only way that I'm going to grow into a mature, convinced, and convincing follower of Christ Jesus. Amen.

THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
