PSALM 16:8 (ABP)
GOD is walking in front of me, close enough so I can see him and follow.
HEBREWS 12:2 (NLT)
We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Above all else keep your eyes on Jesus.
DAILY FODDER
Agree or disagree? By definition it is impossible to act as a Christian if we're looking anywhere other than to Jesus to define how we function in life.
PRAYER
Savior Jesus, thank you for trailblazing the way through death and into the resurrected life. I want to follow you all the way. But I struggle to keep my eyes on you. Overcome my attention deficit because I can't do it on my own. Take me by the hand and lead me into the life your're creating. I'm going to follow close to Jesus so that I don't lose sight and adopt the values and ways of the evil empire. 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.
Since 2006, I've been modeling one way of using the MORAVIAN DAILY TEXTS* to maintain a daily conversation with God.
