от Луки 9:62

Is your soul screaming out that you were born for more than the life you are living? Have you undersold yourself, under-lived your life, and underestimated God’s intention for you? In this 5-day devotional, iconoclast and lead pastor of Mosaic, Erwin McManus, will point the way to leading a life of passion, adventure, and courage. Based on McManus’ new book, The Last Arrow, discover how to wholeheartedly pursue your dreams, to live this one life fully, and to die with an empty quiver.

Who are you becoming? If you envision yourself at age 70, 80, or 100, what kind of person do you see on the horizon? Does the projection in your mind fill you with hope? Or dread? In this devotional, John Mark Comer shows us how we can be spiritually formed to become more like Jesus day by day.

La vita cristiana è paragonata nella Bibbia a una corsa (Ebrei 12:1). Purtroppo, molti l’affrontano come se fosse uno sprint, in cui conta una partenza scattante, oppure una gara di mezzofondo da correre in scioltezza. Il vero paragone, invece, è con una maratona durante la quale ci sono molte cose e persone che cercano di rallentare o fermare la nostra corsa. Dobbiamo affrontare la corsa con la giusta mentalità e con la consapevolezza che Dio ci provvede i mezzi per arrivare fino in fondo. Che tragedia sarebbe abbandonare la corsa quando la vittoria è certa!
