“We pleaded with you, encouraged you, and urged you to live your lives in a way that God would consider worthy. For he called you to share in his Kingdom and glory.” 1 Thessalonians 2:12 NLT
How amazing that God would call me to share in His Kingdom and share His glory, what an offer! But I need to respond to that call, to put my free will into action and make decisions about how I live that are going to honour Him and the calling He has placed on my life. I need to commit to seeking His Kingdom and righteousness first above anything else and trust Him with the rest. Lord, at the start of 2019 help me to stay close to You, to listen for your voice, and give me the courage to follow as obediently as I can, that I might see Your Kingdom come and Your will be done and share the glory that comes from living for Your name, Amen 🙏🏼
