God's Joy in Jesus: Devotions with John Piper day 2


Throughout my life I've valued the loyalty of bad people as my security, and although my brothers and sisters were loyal till the end our lifestyle would be short-lived and difficult in the long run. Even though i’ve left that life, it would be a lie to say that my reliance and love is 100% on Jesus as i'm frequently reminiscing on the pagan activities left behind. As cheesy as this message is, Jesus is the most important thing to value in life. When life becomes frustrating we have some sort of entitlement that things should go our way, there is no justified reason possible for our day to be ruined. But when we abide our mind according to scripture Jesus never disappoints, He never break His promises, He will always be with you (Joshua 1:9). To abide by Jesus in genuine love despite eternally petty hardships is what I envy of others most. And so I hope that something as simple as Bible reading will break and humble me before my God like it used to when I first gave up my life for Him
