Romans 9:1-5
Psalm 147:12-15,19-20
Luke 14:1-6
The lawyers and Pharisees watched Jesus to see if he could heal the man with dropsy on the Sabbath, but Jesus knew their thoughts and exposed their hypocrisy. We can’t hide from God, who knows our innermost thoughts. The man with dropsy was swollen but silent out of fear, yet Christ was never intimidated and did all things well.
What about you? Are you doing your best or holding back? What barriers block your good deeds and prayer time? Are you afraid of others’ perceptions? May God feed us with His wheat and blessings. Let’s focus on God’s will and our goals to become the best in whatever we do.
