Good morning folks!  Why don’t we start off our week with a little inspiration?  I’m reading through Oswald Chambers’ My Utmost for His Highest this year and today’s got me right where I’ve been failin’ and flailin’!  The exact sentence he uses is: “We seem to think God wants us to give up things!”  But he argues, rather Scripturally and accurately, that what God really wants us to do is live and accept better things.  Enter the YouVersion Bible app (which you should totally be using!).  Here’s the verse for the day!  Now…go live for God!

“For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; and He died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for Him who for their sake died and was raised.”
–2 Corinthians 5:14-15 (ESV)
