Till thou hast paid the very last mite. –Luke 12:59
The Invitation … Give All
-Read the account of the rich young man in Mark 10:17-22 and the widow’s mite in Mark 12:41-44.
The Journey
-Think of someone you know who has given all in service to the Lord. What Lesson can you learn from that person? How can you be more like him or her?
-Commit today to give all you have in your service to the Lord. Choose one area where you feel you could give more. What changes will this require in your daily routines?
My Experience …
Mark 10:27 – “For with God all things are possible.” I love this scripture today. I love it because that is how I truly feel. I have worked very hard lately to overcome my past. I have had to learn to trust my Savior and my Heavenly Father. I have had to learn to trust the help that was sent to me. I have felt the strength rendered in my time of weakness. Now it is time to strengthen my brethren.
I have been given so much help that I often question how I will ever be able to repay the kindnesses given to me. The only way to repay those kindnesses is to pay it forward. I am going to try and give my all in repaying the acts of service I have received. For me, this will require learning to listen to the promptings of the spirit better. When I hear those promptings, it will require me acting on them. Sometimes I hear but I don’t really listen. I’m going to do better in this.
I have been so blessed on this recent journey. It hasn’t always been roses. It’s been hard work and a lot of emotions. Even with the hard work and emotions, I have been blessed. I hope that I can be a better person because of this and help those around me. I want to emulate my Savior. In my want, I want to give everything I have. I want to make this new me a life long journey.
