Matthew 5:1-3
Now when He saw the crowds, He went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to Him, and He began to teach them saying, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.
Today's DARE is asking me to prayerfully resolve to usher in God's kingdom, no matter how much my character must change.
Observations:
- God is most strong in me when I am at my weakest. The more I empty myself of "self", the more God fills me with HIM.
- When I am empty of all that is worldly, there is a place for God's kingdom to dwell.
God is calling me to live for Him. I have accepted those commitment dares and have been challenged to live that out. But in order for me to "usher in God's kingdom", there are areas in my life that need to be broken, put in place or removed. If I want to more for Christ, I need to be less for me.
Today, I resolve to allow God to do what He needs with my character so that I can be a part of ushering His kingdom into the present.
