1 Peter 5:5 New King James Version
5 Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.”

GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! Stayed inside today, because Ricky and I were just too sore, tired, and achy to really go out and do anything today. I'm thinking of maybe ordering out from someplace later tonight, but I’m not sure where yet. In the meantime, I'm going to see if I can accomplish a few things online today, but most of all, I'm gonna continue to pray for the nation of Israel, and I pray that all of you will as well.
This morning scripture got me to thinking deeply about how I am tempted to get caught up in trends, the latest philosophy, technology, or whatever it is that the world is offering, and how I need to remember that I need to clothe myself in and focus on Christ Jesus. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional deeply challenged my heart, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions carefully, and I pray that they will challenge you as well.

How are you tempted to find security by keeping up with the latest trends?

What helps you find contentment in Jesus?

Guys, I think these questions are really important, because we are living in a world where how shall I put it, everything is to be instantaneously gratified, and we need to be able to focus on living lives that are gratified through Christ and not the world. I'd like to share some things with all of you tonight, through this vlog, in hopes that you see how important it is to let Christ be your source of contentment, allow Him to clothe you in his ways, and for Him to be the only one that you want to imitate. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how to do just that! 😊

So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to challenge you to look for your fulfillment not in the latest trends, technology, or philosophy, but to find it through Jesus Christ period to realize that true transformation in Jesus isn't a quick fix or a fad, but it's involving something that takes place slowly, throughout our lifetime, and that we want that transformation to be one of lasting value. Remember, my friends, that the things of this world are quickly passing away, and only what is done for Christ is going to last. Choose to clothe yourselves every day in what Colossians 3:12 states, but most of all clothe yourselves in the humility of Jesus Christ.

UNTIL TUESDAY:

HAVE A BLESSED, SWEET, AND TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!
