Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Una de las decisiones más importantes que hacemos al principiar el día es sobre qué vamos a llevar puesto. A pesar de lo que elegimos en el asunto de ropa, más importante es elegir ponernos la nueva persona que Dios nos hizo cuando nos hicimos Cristianos. ¡Estas son las únicas vestimentas que nos van a servir para la eternidad!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Remember, our verse today comes from Paul's challenge to put off our old way of life (Ephesians 4:22-24). Yesterday, we offered ourselves to God to be made new in our ways of thinking and serving. One of the most significant decisions we face at the beginning of each day is what we will wear. Well, no matter what we choose for our physical clothing, let's make sure we choose to put on the new person God re-made us to be, clothed with Christ as our new self (Romans 13:14; Galatians 3:27), someone committed to live for God "in true righteousness and holiness." Only the "garments of salvation" and the "robe of God's righteousness" (Isaiah 61:10) will fit us eternally!
Mi oración
Amado Padre, que la gente vea en mí hoy el carácter y la semejanza de Cristo. Señor Jesús, en tu nombre pido que me guíes en mis decisiones y que me ayudes a saber cómo quieres que actúe en las situaciones que me tocan hoy. Amén.
My Prayer...
Dear Father, may people see the character and likeness of Jesus in me today. Lord Jesus, in your name, I ask you, please, to guide my decisions and help me know how you would have me act in today's situations. Precious and powerful Holy Spirit, please fill me and continue your work in transforming me as I seek to clothe myself with Christ, cherishing the garment of your salvation as Jesus clothes me in the robe of his righteousness. Amen.
