Day 92 Bible Reading: Deuteronomy 21-22, Luke 9:51-62, Psalm 74 and Proverb 12:11 Link opens new window 

Total commitment is hard. It’s natural to want to hold a little back. We want a safety margin; a bank account, just in case. "Don’t put all your eggs in one basket!" people say. But true Christ-followers know that he is not looking for half-hearted, ‘maybes’, ‘just in case’, ‘if-everything-runs-smoothly’ disciples. There is a cost to following Jesus... but it is a cost well worth the price.

"Jesus said to him, 'No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.'" – Luke 9:62 ‭‬‭(English Standard Version)

"Dear Lord, I want to go forward today. No looking back. Whatever happened yesterday I lay at the cross and tomorrow I put in your hands. Give me the faith and confidence in you for the day ahead. You are Lord of all in my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen."
