The joy our Lord experienced came from doing what the Father sent Him to do. And He says to us,…

Daily Devotional – Is This True of Me?

Is This True of Me? – From Utmost.org March 4, 2016 None of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself… —Acts 20:24  It is easier to serve or work for God without a vision and without a call, because then you are not bothered by what He requires. Common sense, covered with a layer of Christian emotion, becomes your guide. You may be more prosperous and successful from the world’s perspective, and will have…
