Scripture Titus 1:1 Paul, a bondservant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God\u2019s elect and the acknowledgment of the truth which accords with godliness, <\/p>\n
Observation: A bondservant is a servant who freely gives themself to be a servant forever to his Master. We are no longer our own but belong to Christ and we must obey. Obey is a hard thing to do for so many of us, we serve Christ, but do it on our terms and not his. That is not being a good servant. God loves us and wants to protect us, but we need to be in His will and do our job the way He intended it to be done.<\/p>\n
Application: Start each day by thanking God for all He has done and given me. Ask what He desires of me with the time He has given me. He gave me a book of instructions, the bible, and I need to follow them. He calls me to serve Him by serving his children. May I be that good and faithful servant.<\/p>\n
Prayer My Lord I give you this day and ask that you command me on what you would desire me to do. May I be pleasing to you as I do my duties and I freely give you this life as a living sacrifice, may it be holy and pleasing to you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
