Jesus said, “For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.”

Matthew 16:25

What is your Promised Land? What do you hope that God could show you at the end of your life that honors him and serves others? Where are you giving your one and only life that will last beyond you? 

True fulfillment does not come through making our lives about us. True happiness and fulfillment come by giving our lives away. If we seek to save our lives or hang onto our lives and make them about us, we ultimately lose any desire for life. However, if we live for Jesus and his purposes then we will find our lives.

Pray for God’s purpose and vision for your life and for the grace to live it out.
