TODAY’S SCRIPTURE. "So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday ordinary life; your sleeping, eating, going to work and walking around life and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for Him” (Romans 12:1 MSG).

One way you can express your love for God is by being committed to Him. Love is really all about commitment. You do not really love somebody unless you’re committed to their best interest. Nothing significant ever happens in life without commitment. Your commitments determine your future. You become whatever you are committed to. Choose your commitments carefully. If you are committed to the wrong thing, you are going to become the wrong thing.

You cannot lose by being committed to God. 2 Chronicles 16:9 says that God is looking for people whose hearts are fully committed to Him so that He can bless and use them.
What does it mean to be fully committed to God?

  1. Giving my life to Jesus Christ.
  2. Committing my life to His family (the body of Christ, which is the church)and joining a church family.
    3.Choosing to grow spiritually and become more and more like Jesus Christ everyday in my character.
  3. Using my talents and gifts to help others.
  4. Sharing the good news with other people and fulfilling the mission and purpose why God put me on earth.

The aforementioned forms of commitments show that worship is not just something that happens in the four walls of a church building. Worship can happen anywhere "take your everyday ordinary life, your sleeping, eating, going to work and walking around life and place it before God as an offering”(Romans 12:1b MSG)

TODAY'S PRAYER
Help me Lord Jesus to show my love for you by being committed to the things of the kingdom. I receive strength to use my gifts and talents to help others as I share the good news. Amen

If one loves God, there is bound to be commitment to Him. Now the question is: DO WE LOVE GOD? Love for God is the ultimate incentive to selfless service to Him. Let's aim to fan our love for God aflame today and all other things will follow the trail as supposed. Remain blessed @resuscitate.
