On Sunday and Monday I finished up the "Our Daily Bread" devotional plan. I really enjoyed this plan and I would recommend it, if you're looking for a devotional plan.
Sunday 5/29/16
(Genesis 27:19-33)
Why do we hide our faults. I mean, I know the answer but as a Christian shouldn’t we be more concerned with owning up to our faults and repenting of them, and trying to be more like Jesus? That being said, I still hate owning up to my faults to those around me. It’s pride. But the only thing we should be boastful of is the death and resurrection of Yeshua, our Messiah (Gal 6:14)
Then Isaac trembled violently. Then he said, “who then was he that hunted wild game and brought it to me, and I ate it all before you came, and I blessed him? Moreover, he will be blessed.
-Genesis 27:33

(1 Timothy 6:6-16)
We often strive for more and more, and feel like we don’t have enough when we look at our neighbors and see the ‘stuff’ that they have. The truth is that those neighbors are usually, also, looking at you and thinking the same thing. One of the keys to happiness is to learn to be grateful for what we already have. When we can do that, we are moving in the right direction.
But you, O man of God flee from these things, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith,, love, patient endurance, gentleness.
-1 Timothy 6:11
Tuesday and Wednesday
The Our Daily Bread plan was over and I hadn’t found a new plan yet so the only devotional I did over these two days was my Bible in One Year plan. I didn’t take any notes for these days, though.
Be Transformed To Transform
Thank goodness I have still had my one year plan to go through. And thank God that this was only a 3 day plan. I don’t want to complain about a free devotional but this was the most disjointed, poorly put together plan I’ve encountered. I wouldn’t recommend this one if you’re looking for a plan on the Bible app.
Thursday 6/2/16
(1 Corinthians 1:1-3)
Paul, though he thought he was on God’s mission, was in severe rebellion to God when He was persecuting the church. What areas of your life are like this? Do you have any areas where you’re certain that you’re doing Yahweh’s work? Search yourself and ask the Holy Spirit about it. Be willing to hear correction. Maybe we are doing Yah’s work, but we need to be sure we are, especially if what we’re doing is marginalizing anyone.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,
-1 Corinthians 1:3
