(CLICK THE PICTURE) Good morning everyone and thank the Lord for another new day. How is your attitude lately? Most of us can have real funky dispositions from time to time but today I’m passing on some friendly advice. Let the scripture bless your viewpoint.
Today’s Prayer
Father, worship can be holy, sacred, uplifting, and filled with “Praise the Lord” and hosannas. Salvation is free – accepting Your grace, then repenting and turning Your way. But discipleship is costly, isn’t it? You called us, not just for our own salvation, but to be a “cross-bearer,” to share another’s burden, to love the unlovable, and to lead others to You! Oh Lord, for this we were chosen, so fill us with Your Holy Spirit and equip us for this task that we can’t accomplish on our own. In the matchless name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
Let’s eat.
Have the Attitude of Christ
Philippians 2:1-10
1 Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and compassionate? 2 Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose. 3 Don’t be selfish; don’t try to impress others. Be humble, thinking of others as better than yourselves. 4 Don’t look out only for your own interests, but take an interest in others, too. 5 You must have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. 6 Though he was God, he did not think of equality with God as something to cling to. 7 Instead, he gave up his divine privileges; he took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form, 8 he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on a cross. 9 Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the name above all other names, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Quote of the Day
What God may hereafter require of you, you must not give yourself the least trouble about. Everything He gives you to do, you must do as well as ever you can, and that is the best possible preparation for what He may want you to do next. If people would but do what they have to do, they would always find themselves ready for what came next.
