GIORNO 16 DI 27

    

Read: Philippians 3:5-11

SOAP: Philippians 3:8-9

In light of what we have in Christ, nothing compares. Nothing this world has to offer comes even close to the blessing of having a personal relationship with Jesus… NOTHING. May our hearts yearn for more of Him and less of this world. May we be women who seek after God’s righteousness - not out of pride but out of love. May we yearn for more of Him because He first loved us.

Love God Greatly - Philippians: Choosing Joy

How is it possible to have deep joy in the midst of overwhelming sorrow and suffering? Out of 104 verses in this power-packed book, Jesus is mentioned directly or indirectly 51 times. In the end, Paul teaches us that Jesus is the Author and only Source of true joy. The things of this world can never satisfy our deepest longings. Without Jesus there is no salvation, and therefore no lasting joy. Without Jesus there is no way to overcome our circumstances, to love people who are hard to love, to reconcile, to forgive, and to live godly lives.
