Many times, when serving the Lord, we get lost in what people will thing of us. We have to come to the crossroads of being ashamed or completely abandoned to God's love, mercy, compassion, protection, and leadership. Honestly, I feel like this crossroad comes several times in our lives. It is truly an important milestone, and has so much meaning each and every time.
We need to remember that the only opinion that counts, or we should be concerned with, is that of God's. We will have to answer to Him for the life we lived here and how we produced fruit or not.
1 Corinthians 15: 58
Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
1 Corinthians 16:13-14
Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.
Father God,
Thank you for your love, protection, provision, healing, mercy, and grace. You are my rock, my salvation and firm foundation. I ask that in ALL things that I give you Praise and honor that you deserve. Lord, I pray that the words from my mouth will give testimony of who you are and how much you love us. Give me the strength, Oh Lord, to live recklessly abandoned for you. Amen.
