1 Chronicles 29
As a follow up to yesterday's post, David continues to remain humble and he demonstrates this further by stating what all believers should recognize - that we exist solely to glorify God and we should not conform to the patterns of this world (Romans 12:2). We are foreigners, we should be mindful of our host (God), and live with eternity in mind (considering Heaven is our Home).
Also, apart from God we have no good things.
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are an awesome God who loves me and who is full of compassion. Thank You Jesus! I am not worth such love. I am selfish - please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome my sin and turn from You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You do. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself wisdom and strength. Please heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo. Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior. Please provide Godly friends and spouses to Zach and Dustin. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
We are foreigners and strangers in your sight, as were all our ancestors. Our days on earth are like a shadow, without hope. v15
