January 10 | Pursue Jesus
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3.5-6

Reading: Proverbs 3

To pursue Jesus is to trust Him and to make a conscious acknowledgement of Him “in all your ways.”  If we truly are going to pursue Jesus, we cannot retain the rights to our own position or place.  We also must not be preoccupied with working out the details of our own life.  We must surrender.  Learning to surrender to Jesus and leaving the details of our future in His hands, is vital to pursuing Jesus.   

Prayer:  Lord, help me to trust you every minute of every day.  May I acknowledge you in all my ways.  Help me to surrender the details of my life and my future in Your Sovereign hands.
