Luke 17:10" 'So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, whould say, "We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty." ' "
even if we bring a hundred people to the Lord, we shouldn't look for recognition and praise. because all we did is pay off a very small portion of our debt. and we'll never be able to pay off that debt. so we must.. instead of trying to pay off our debt.. which will never happen.. we devote our lives to the Lord. and everything we accomplish is in that wonderful glory. because even the greatest things that we do are in Him and thanks to him and we should not seek recognition and praise for ourselves but turn towards him because as the verse says.. we are unworthy servants, and we only have done our duty. A great and heavy reminder.
Humble me, Lord.
Nikke's thoughts
We are unworthy servants, but how amazing is our God to honor and love us no matter what!?
He is so amazing!
I constantly fail and God still loves me!
It amazes me when I think about how God sent His own son to die on a cross for us.
As a Mother myself if I had to choose to let my daughter die or to die myself I would choose to die so that she could live. I think most parents feel this way about their children.
To me this just shows how much God really loves us. That He would give up His only son!
I know this is something that most of us already know but sometimes the basic things like this really have the most impact. Ya know what I mean?
Lord, I know I am undeserving of Your love yet You still love me. I am Your daughter. I am the daughter of You the King! Help me to live according to Your will and give me the strength to persevere through the trials yet to come. I love you and I cannot imagine life without You.
Amen
