Reading God’s Word: Mark 8:22-9:29; Proverbs 3:1-35

Memorizing God’s Word: Mark 8:34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.

Meditating on God’s Word: Mark 8:35 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.

Praying God’s Word: “Lord, I want to trust in you with all my heart, lead my steps today and this week. I desire more of you and your direction in my life. Help me to follow your leading and not my own desires. My flesh desires things of the world and comfort, but my desire is to live my life fully surrendered to you. Amen.”
