Daily Devotional

“Rivers don’t drink their water; trees do not eat their fruit; the sun does not shine on itself, and flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves. Living for others is a rule of nature. We are all born to help each other. No matter how difficult it is… life is good when you are happy, but much better when others are happy because of you.”

There is a saying, “What is beyond six is more than seven.” Regardless of your profession, pay attention to your spiritual life and do not depend solely on your human efforts and skills. Jesus tells us today: “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me.”

Develop a thick skin ready to handle “spiritual stress” during moments of tribulation. Be willing, like Job, to accept whatever comes your way, knowing that God remains forever your loving Father. Let not your hearts be troubled. Challenges are part of life. If the road is too smooth, the journey would be tedious. Just keep moving. Tough times don’t last, but tough people do.
