Happy Monday!

Hello all! Here is another excerpt from my devotions on our women's website. Have a great day!!

Happy Monday Ladies! I am so excited to start these new testament readings! Who doesn't love Corinthians?? : )

Today I just want to look at a very small part of 1 Corinthians 2. Verse 2 to be exact. Paul says "For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified." I love that! I resolved to know nothing except Jesus Christ. How powerful! So many times we feel like we have to have all the answers. We try to explain away our lives, over-plan the future, over-analyze God's Word, etc. In short, we think too much! (Now, sometimes we don't think enough, but that is a different devotion, isn't it? ha)

I love Paul's "resolve" here to know nothing but Jesus. And I think that it's pretty amazing that by knowing only Jesus, we end up knowing and understanding alot more in life. By knowing only Jesus, we probably have more answers than we realize. By knowing only Jesus, life just gets simpler, easier, and yet more purposeful.

So as we start our busy weeks, let us resolve together to know nothing except Jesus Christ!! Praying for you!

In His Love!!

1 Corinthians 2 1 And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.[a] 2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3 I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling. 4 My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, 5 so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power.
