Text for the Day -- Hebrews 13:12-16 ---------- Therefore Jesus also suffered outside the city gate in order to sanctify the people by his own blood. Let us then go to him outside the camp and bear the abuse he endured. For here we have no lasting city, but we are looking for the city that is to come. Through him, then, let us continually offer a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name. Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
Devotional ---------- Jesus made atonement for our sins. By his blood we are healed. Give your heart over to gratitude and praise to God. We live by and in God's mercy. In this mercy we have been freed to live and do good for others. We do not need to worry about our status with God, nor our future. That is sealed in God through Christ. With a grateful heart we can let our good works for others be a praise offering to God.
Prayer --------- Lord, help me let my life be a praise offering of good works. Amen
