Called to be Humble, Faithful and Holy ~ by Mary Baker

All we have to do is confess our sins to God and he will put them in another place.

In today's Gospel of Matthew, we learn that God placed in Jesus' heart what he should teach his disciples. How they were to gain wisdom to experience and do the good works of God, because they were to carry on from generation to generation.

By seeking the Lord and observing his laws, Jesus became a martyr for us so we could become God's temples.

God is calling us today to be humble, faithful and holy. He wants us to keep Christ's presence in our lives at all times. So let us practice on keeping a clean heart, so we can better serve him.

There are many distractions in our lives today. Through history, God has placed a holy remnant in our midst so we can become more spiritual and depend totally on him.

God is the reason we are in Christ Jesus. Jesus made himself humble, poor in spirit and meek for the sake of all.

Let us have that great desire to serve him. Consider your calling. This is a sobering thought; that preaching is easy, but practicing is better.
