Today’s Scripture: and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised. 2 Corinthians 5:15 ESV
The life God offers us is so much better than this life we so often cling to; not only for eternity but for today. So often we fret and worry about today yet when we live for Him we experience Him. We can not even dream of the wonders He provides.
God knows us and knows right where we are today. When He reveals Himself to us we can hold onto Him, cling to Him when we are faced with doubt and fears. He promised us to be a new creation in Him. When we cling to Him we live the new creation and move to a better place than where we are when we live for ourselves.
Living for Christ today will give us confidence and courage and He will use us to help reconcile others to Him.
Are you living the life Christ died to give you?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for the death of Jesus that gave me life. Help me to live for Jesus Christ today. Thank You for knowing right where I am and for knowing me. I find courage and confidence in the life of Christ and trust You Father to use me today. Amen

Each day I have to take this before the Father to make sure I am living life for Him and not for myself.
Amen Bill. It is easy to doubt but the seed of trust is firmly planted. I disappoint myself when I find myself thinking I have some control instead of trusting Him. I am thankful He has proven Himself to us and we can hold onto the seeds of hope and know His will be done! Blessings!

Love praying with you Deb! Thanks and God bless you too!
