God Chooses You
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.—1 Peter 2:9 (NIV)
Today's daily devotion
You Belong to Him
If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.—Romans 14:8 (NIV)
In the above verse Paul explains that if we live, we live for Jesus, and if we die, we die for Him—it all belongs to Him. You can find comfort knowing that if you devote yourself to your faith, all that your life is, every one of your accomplishments, and, your failures, too, belong to Him. Your life is filled with meaning because of Him.
Heavenly Father, I live for You.
