Day 432 – Luke 9:48
Then he said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.” Luke 9:48, NIV The disciples were arguing about who was the greatest among them, and this is what Jesus said. The one who is least among them is the greatest. And He used the little child as a physical representation of greatness. The kids during their time were seen as not that important to society.

God has no limit to how He can bless your life
God will bless you. He can reveal things in your life that can change how you look and handle yourself and others. You may ask Him about the things that you want and the things that your heart hungers. What you deeply desire is what will be given. He will show you favor in every journey of your life. But not all that He is doing will make sense at first. Sometimes, He will not wrap gifts in fancy papers but in the form of problems and sadness. Not all gifts can be seen because natural treasures are hidden and nourished within you. So, do not just limit your perspective…

When we are too focused on things that will satisfy us, we will find our lives meaningless. True life is found in the arms of Jesus. It’s in His presence that we will discover our true identity. So when you choose to walk away from His plans, then you will end up in destruction. Surrender your life to Jesus. Choose to suffer for His glory. And only then will you discover what it means…

We need to learn how to serve others and not just satisfy our selfish desires. Aside from that, Jesus also encouraged His disciples to take up their cross, which means that there will be challenges along the way.…
