“Out of every one hundred men, ten shouldn't even be there, eighty are just targets, nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, one is a warrior, and he will bring the others back.”

-Heraclitus

Good morning friends! Hope all of you have a blessed day.
Here's a thought on giving.
Now when we heard these things, both we and those from that place pleaded with him not to go up to Jerusalem. Then Paul answered, "What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."
Acts 21:12-13

Are you willing to live for the Lord?

Paul wrote, "I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me." Galatians 2:20

If anyone lived for Christ, it was the Apostle Paul. He endured many trials and suffered greatly in order to further the Gospel. Paul did end up dying for the Lord, but by his living for the Lord, his life was "poured out as a drink offering" (2 Tim 4:6). If you are living for the Lord, then you will be giving your life away and living sacrificially for others and not for yourself.

Jesus said, "If you cling to your life, you will lose it; but if you give it up for me, you will find it." Matthew 10:39

Are you giving your life away?

Good morning WB. Yes, we can't do it by ourselves. Jesus has already done it for us, although, he wants us to change to be like Him. I would like to think that I am living my life every day for Him.
Great morning quotes from the Bible. Thanks!
