In 1 Corinthians 9 & 10, Paul shows us the importance of relying on the power and provision of the Lord as we carry out His will on the earth. The Lord will honor our faithful obedience and will meet every need along the way. There's nothing in this life more important that loving God and spreading His offer of saving mercies and grace to the world around us. The Lord directs us to glorify Him with everything. Loving Jesus and living for the Lord doesn't mean we do what we want and just add Jesus into the mix when it's convenient. It means we live the truth of His Word out in every part of our lives every day. It means Jesus is central and core to every part of our lives and how we live and work and play. We need to lace up our running shoes every morning and run for Jesus every day. We need to thank Him for His faithfulness every evening and worship His great Name with every last exhale.
