Thursday Week 1
“As I read today’s Word and the devotion to go along with it, a few things came to my mind, 1. We see over and over again in scripture people, who choose to follow Jesus, receiving new names, but WHY? Its because following Jesus meant to give up your own life and live for him, one verse I love to read is Gal. 2:20, it talks about how “it is no long I who life, but Christ who lives in me.”. As a man I seek and long to be called “A Man of God” (1 TIm. 6:11), as the devotion talked about, we have that opportunity to be call by a new name. Each day we should ask ourselves this question “By what name does God call me?”. The second thing that came to mind is at the end of the section Jesus talks about what they have seen, for which they believe, this caught my eye, because I know I lose sight of why I believe from time to time, but we, and I know I, need to found that hope and confront in what is to come, when Jesus spoke in verse 51.”
