"Losing yourself"



Friday, June 20, 2014

Scripture

“Those who find their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it.” (Matthew 10:39)

Reflection

It’s been a week of difficult texts! Yet they are all saying the same thing. When we “lose” ourselves to Christ, we find ourselves in him. We get our lives back so much more abundantly than we could ask for or imagine, enriched, not in self-seeking or self-serving, but in self-giving and self-emptying.

Prayer

Dearest Lord Jesus, Empower me to lose myself for your sake over and over again, that I might be found in you. In your name. Amen.

Pastor David
