Theme for the Week: THE TRANSFORMED PERSON GLORIES IN CHRIST
Reading: Galatians 6:12-16
Galatians 6:14 (NIV)
May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.
Most people want to show off their in life, especially when they can do what others are not able to do. Such people look down on those who are unable to act as them.
There is one thing worth boasting in; the cross of Christ. When you pick up the cross of Christ, you declare that you will henceforth have nothing to do with the pleasures of the world, and you embrace the persecution that comes with it.
Taking up the cross of Christ means separating yourself from the world, although you still live in the world. You no longer engage in things that please you, but those that please God. Be willing to be crucified to the world and boast in the cross of Christ. Selah.
Let's Pray:
Faithful and true God, You are forever glorified. Lord, may I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. Amen.
