January 22

When Christ is our life then we need always to think as children of the King;

trusting in His promises and not in the prosperity of the world;

desiring to serve Christ and not seeking after the pleasures of the world;

having the goal to see His will fulfilled in our life

without regard for worldly ambitions;

being tender hearted so we are drawn into closer union with Christ

even when it means we lose the friendship of the world;

and being renewed daily in our mind by His word

so we are not led by the philosophy of a world

that is opposed to the gospel of Christ.
