Scripture: Matthew 2: [8] He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and make a careful search for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.”<\/p>\n
Observation: Most of my life I was searching for something, something that would give me peace and make sense of my life. I didn\u2019t realize until years later I should have been searching for Jesus, the author of this life and when I found him I was to worship him, not for what he has done for me, but because of who he is.<\/p>\n
Application: Now that I have found the savior I should be spending most of my days worshiping him in the things that I do and the way that I act. He should get all the glory and honor in my life and my full attention and obedience. I started this life lost, but now that I found my Lord there is no excuse not to live this life holy and pleasing to him.<\/p>\n
Prayer: Dear Lord I have found you and have no excuse to live a life pleasing to you. Guide me each day to be this man you desire me to be, fulfilling the purpose you created me for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
