Jesus First: Devotions to Start Your DaySample

Everything for Jesus

How would your life change if you, in the small, mundane areas of life, did it all for Jesus rather than for yourself? Would your attitude about cleaning up a mess be different if you did it for the Lord rather than a seemingly ungrateful housemate? Our lives in the Lord are not made in the big, momentous decisions or victories. They are made up of the little choices and turning of our attention.

How can you invite deeper friendship with Jesus throughout your day? What if when you found yourself tempted to complain about what you are doing, instead, you offered your best at the moment and talked it through with the Lord? There is no such thing as too small a surrender or too little a blessing. And there is always a reason to be thankful. Jesus is near, and he sees every small move you make toward him!

Lord Jesus, thank you for seeing every effort I make for you and others. Where resentment would like to build a fence, gratitude digs a well. I want to draw from your goodness, Jesus. Teach me to turn to you and dedicate the little moments to you!
