VERSE OF THE DAY

Thursday

Mark 8:36 What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his very soul?

We chase after so many different things. Only one thing is needed. Having a fist full of dollars, a great estate, and lots of prestige doesn't mean a whole lot if you've gone to your ultimate address without the Lord. Even worse, is to find that in the middle of your busy-ness, you awake to find yourself in the barren land where Christ does not dwell and life is not found.

PRAYER ... Father, help me to keep my priorities right and my life holy and my heart open to Your will rather than being blinded with my own self-seeking. Through Jesus I pray. Amen.
