Jesus Calling...


Last year one of my students bought me a daily devotional book. I was touched by such a sweet gesture but honestly didn't open the book until this fall. I had no idea what I was missing out on. The book is titled Jesus Calling and it is written by Sarah Young. She has a way of putting things into perspective and making you stop and think everyday. These daily devotions have been such a blessing and an encouragement that I wanted to share with you. If you need something that helps you stay in the presence of Jesus, this book is it. Here is a piece of what today's devotion said:


Do not expect to be treated fairly in this life. People will say and do harmful things to you, things that you don't deserve. When someone mistreats you, try to view it as an opportunity to grow in grace. See how quickly you can forgive the one who has wounded you. Don't be concerned about setting the record straight. Instead of obsessing about other people's opinions of you, keep your focus on Me. Ultimately, it is My view of you that counts.
