Summary
As we begin to wrap up our week on living poor in Spirit, today we’ll examine the life of Jesus as our example and how he always put others first. As we seek to understand how to live a lowly life of love, may you be envisioned and encouraged today to love God and others well. God wants to use you as a vessel of his grace and love in this world. Will you let him?
Our Scripture for today comes from Proverbs 22:4, and today's worship is Adonai by Chris Renzema.
