What am I willing to do in His Name?

Scripture: Acts 21: [13] Then Paul answered, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”

Observation: I was walking this morning and I passed by a home that was moving out and I saw someone I recognized from church. Instead of asking if he needed help I walked by hoping he would not recognize me, because there were other things I wanted to do. I’m not even willing to help a brother out in the name of Jesus.

Application: I need to start putting others first as my Lord put me first going to the cross. I need to be doing good in His name and that Jesus gets the credit for anything good that comes from me. I need to be willing to do anything in His name to glorify and honor my Lord.

Prayer: Dear Lord forgive this lazy servant and strengthen me to do what is right and direct my path. Open my eyes to your desires and not mine.
