Walk Through The Bible 365 - JulySample
Commitment Is Tough. Count On It.
In the popular westernized prosperity-oriented, glow-in-the-dark version of Christianity, problems, persecution, and difficulties are something that are supposed to just disappear with the right words and attitude. The apostle Paul knew better. Following Christ means not following the world ... which makes the world uncomfortable, angry, vengeful, and persecution inevitable and guaranteed.
Prayer: Forgive me, Lord, for being more concerned about comfort than commitment. Too often I've chosen the road to make the most friends and fewest enemies instead of concerning myself with living a godly life. I commit myself anew today to live for you, no matter what. Give me strength to stand up when I want to sit down, to stand out when I want to hide. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
