Higher calling..

Hi..
★Matthew 5:10
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Daniels 3 friends when they refused to bow to the idol, so were cast into the furnace..
But the Lord lifted them up.....
★Hebrews 12:1 "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
Let not cares and worries of this life discourage us."
‎★"We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God: those who are called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28
Let's not trade the BEST God has for us for something that merely looks good in our eyes....

Sometimes we miss God's Highest and Best calling..by looking at things that are not in God's plan for us...
As far as God's concerned there is only one best...the "high calling of God in Christ Jesus"(Philippians 3:14 KJV)
Let's lay aside everything that weighs us down...
And just do only what God whats us to do....!!
May we always be in the center of HIS will...!!
His best may involve a lot of letting go, crushing, pruning but if we are willing to pay the price our reward will be great.
Bible says..
★'In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted (2 Timothy 3:12).
★John 15:20 'No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.
★John 15:18-19 If the world hate you, you know that it hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love his own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
Walking the difficult path?
Press on...
