加拉太書 1:16

Worship leader, songwriter, author, and educator Toni LaShaun Wortherly offers a brief exploration into being chosen by God for His Glory. This devotional plan, and the song of the same title, are written to give hope to those struggling with past failures and present fears and let them know about the promised future they can have with Christ!

The finished work of Christ has not only provided salvation, it has established a unified life. We are now in Christ. We are one with Christ and this awareness of this oneness is one of the most fruitful things we can focus on.

How we view our work – in service to ourselves or in service to others – makes all the difference in our ability to be witnesses for Christ. Paul gives us a powerful example of what it looks like to shift from self-interest to serving others so that we can be a light for Christ at work.  

Paul wasn’t one of the original twelve apostles. Nonetheless, he took Jesus’ Great Commission to heart and spent his entire life making disciples, or students, of everyone he met. He shared the Gospel with them, then taught them how to illustrate that Gospel so it would never be called into question, others would accept it, and God would be glorified. Now it’s our turn!
