Today's Quote:

“The self-imposed shackles of the spiritually impoverished inhibit a soul from walking away from their ego, from denying themselves, in order to take up their cross and follow Him.”

- The Cyrenian Way, Chapter 2, Page 13

Question to pray with today:

What are some shackles that lead me to lean on my own strength instead of God?

Action Step:

Draw out a life-sized cross and list some of the self-imposed shackles that have held you back in your relationship with God.  Put them on the cross and offer them up to the Lord in a way that seems appropriate to you.
