I’m not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don’t get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I’ve got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back. So let’s keep focused on that goal, those of us who want everything God has for us. If any of you have something else in mind, something less than total commitment, God will clear your blurred vision—you’ll see it yet! Now that we’re on the right track, let’s stay on it. Stick with me, friends. Keep track of those you see running this same course, headed for this same goal. There are many out there taking other paths, choosing other goals, and trying to get you to go along with them. I’ve warned you of them many times; sadly, I’m having to do it again. All they want is easy street. They hate Christ’s Cross. But easy street is a dead-end street. Those who live there make their bellies their gods; belches are their praise; all they can think of is their appetites.

3 Days
It’s tempting to feel like we need to perform before God can work in our lives. When we struggle, it can seem as if we’re failing. But God has already rescued us! No matter what we encounter or battle, He is with us and will fulfill His plans for us. Begin this three-day plan via Rush from Gather Ministries and surrender all of your doubts, hurt, and perfectionism to Him.
Do you ever feel alone, isolated, or unwanted? The theme of these guided audio meditations is "being known." Day 1 is how to celebrate the joy of Christ together. Day 2 is about being synchronized with others and united in Christ. And, Day 3 is about living a life that lets the world know who you are. We pray you are blessed and encounter God in this plan.
I want to be truly justified before God, rather than getting my strokes from people, or my self-appreciating comparisons, don’t you? So, how about joining me for a few days as I explore the subject of spiritual pride and let’s figure out what the Lord has to say about it? I do believe it is something that can slip into our life without us even knowing it.
Get a glimpse into the rich truths in Bishop Courtney McBath’s book, Living at the Next Level. We weren’t meant to simply survive, or take hold of salvation merely to go to heaven. Instead, God desires us to take hold of the abundant, joyful, rewarding life that comes as a direct result of communion and relationship with Him!
