Who Are You Following?



Greetings and Blessings!!

Happy Saturday Everyone!! Hope you all are doing well! So I am reading this 365 daily devotional called Jesus Calling by Sarah Young and it is awesome! I know I'm in only in the month of January reading this devotional but I truly recommend you all getting this book! I got mine from Half- price books in the clearance section! So this morning devotional, I wanted to share with you all and the importance of knowing who you follow in your time of need. God paid the ultimate sacrifice when he died upon the cross. He died so that we wouldn't have to and he took on the sins of not only yours and mine but of this world. So why is it hard for us to seek him and follow his word? Why do we feel that we can have one foot in the door with God and the other foot out in the world? Why do we have a hard time trusting him and only him? This world didn't die for us but God did! He came so that we could have life and have it more abundantly. We can't serve two masters and think that it is okay. We as believers and followers of Christ will go through hardships and difficulties. But it is in those times that we seek God and praise our way through. Thank him for what we are going through instead of asking the question of "why me"? Thank him that it is you because he is doing a good work in and through you for his Glory! We can't just give him praise when things our going our way and then freak out when things start to unravel and seek temporary pleasures of this world so that we can mask the pain of what we don't want to deal with. Where is your FAITH? Where is your TRUST IN HIM? God has gone before you and made all of your crooked paths straight but are you willing to walk along side him and take up your cross to see where he is trying to lead you.


Be Blessed
