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, because He came and He gave it all!

"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."
