Don't be afraid to be different

"Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul." (1 Peter 2:11)

Today's Word

Christians are supposed to stand out in a crowd. You should be able to tell a Christian by their actions and how they differ from the world. Rather than be part of the constantly lost flock, you should soar like an eagle higher and higher above the earth! Follow God with conviction, and you might find yourself acting much more strangely compared to earthly standards. But God will promote you to a new level of blessing and victory when you commit yourself fully to Him. Don't live a life of mediocrity and regularity, live a life of excellence for God! Don't be afraid to be different and stand out. Remember, Jesus was considered different!

A Prayer for Today

God, thank You that I am made to be different for Your sake. Give me strength to soar like an eagle and stand out in this world around me. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
