Saturday's Verse of the Day Devotional

Good morning! This verse reminds me of "Joy To the World" where it says, "Let earth receive her King!" Receiving the Lord as Lord of your life means to give Him total control of your life. Every aspect of your life gets turned over to His control. Your thoughts, behaviors, actions and motives all belong to His direction when He becomes your Lord.

I can't trust myself to make the right decisions or do things with a pure heart. I have a track record to prove it. Whenever I have done my own thing, it left me broken, in trouble, in turmoil or distress. Whenever I follow Jesus and His plan, it may not be easy, but it works out and is what is best. It always turns out better than what I would have chosen.

Walk in Him and let Him root your life in truth and build faith in you to believe Him for all things. Let Him give you a heart of gratitude in all things that no matter what you face, you can faith in Him and abound in thanksgiving for His goodness, grace and mercy. Trust Him to be the King of your heart, let Him lead you and go out and make a great day!
