Verse
If with heart and soul you’re doing good, do you think you can be stopped? Even if you suffer for it, you’re still better off. Don’t give the opposition a second thought. Through thick and thin, keep your hearts at attention, in adoration before Christ, your Master. Be ready to speak up and tell anyone who asks why you’re living the way you are, and always with the utmost courtesy. Keep a clear conscience before God so that when people throw mud at you, none of it will stick. They’ll end up realizing that they’re the ones who need a bath. It’s better to suffer for doing good, if that’s what God wants, than to be punished for doing bad. That’s what Christ did definitively: suffered because of others’ sins, the Righteous One for the unrighteous ones. He went through it all—was put to death and then made alive—to bring us to God. (1 Peter 3:13-18 MSG)
My Word or Phrase
With heart and soul
My Image
I see people like Nelson Mandela or Mother Theresa who gave fully of themselves for their cause – heart & soul – despite the hardships and suffering it caused them.
My Invitation
I need to discover or perhaps just develop what it is God is calling me to give my heart and soul to. Or is it that all I do I should give it all I have? What kind of life message would that send to the world? What does this look like?
