To you?

Good morning everybody.

January 8th.

Welcome to another episode of the messy masterpiece

podcast, which had in Tori.

We're just thankful that we get to devote ourselves daily

to do life with you daily and doing life unto Christ daily.

So we hope you enjoy today's episode of our podcast.

So let's just jump right in.

We are in the Thrives Study Bible once again page 12 29 if you have it and we are reading out of Mark 9

in the verses mark 941 if you have your Bibles. The title of the devotional is Living Beyond Ourselves.

And it says, if anyone gives you even a cup of water because you belong to the Messiah,

I tell you the truth that person will

surely be rewarded. And then the love letter from God says,

Beloved child. I know you have a desire in your heart to do something great to change the world. I placed it there. You are not called to live a life of mediocrity. I want you to thrive as you live out my purposes. I see even the littlest thing that you do that points to me, and I will reward you in extraordinary ways.

Don't be afraid to step out in faith and meet a need. You will find that the more you

refresh others, the more refreshed you will feel because you are doing the will of your

father. Come to me every morning and ask me to open your

heart to my plan for the day. Every day will have a surprise gift for you to

give away so others can find me.

Love your Heavenly Father.

And then the reflection says, many times
