“Two men went to the Temple to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a despised tax collector.

The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed this prayer: ‘I thank you, God, that I am not like other people—cheaters, sinners, adulterers. I’m certainly not like that tax collector!
I fast twice a week, and I give you a tenth of my income.’
“But the tax collector stood at a distance and dared not even lift his eyes to heaven as he prayed. Instead, he beat his chest in sorrow, saying, ‘O God, be merciful to me, for I am a sinner.’
I tell you, this sinner, not the Pharisee, returned home justified before God. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

I want to be truly justified before God, rather than getting my strokes from people, or my self-appreciating comparisons, don’t you? So, how about joining me for a few days as I explore the subject of spiritual pride and let’s figure out what the Lord has to say about it? I do believe it is something that can slip into our life without us even knowing it.
Feeling spiritually exhausted from trying to look the part? It’s time for a Holy Hustle Detox with "Sassy Jesus"—the bold, table-flipping Savior who isn’t impressed by perfect appearances. In this 3-day plan by author Heather Hair, you'll discover how Jesus calls out performative religion and invites you into something real, raw, and deliciously restful (because who wouldn't want their "soul rest" to feel like dessert?)

Although we all look different, together we are called as one under Christ. When the parts are strong, the body is strong - the orthopedic industry included! This industry is comprised of many people working together to create restoration for their patients. Each person brings a unique and special talent that without, restoration would not be possible. Let’s celebrate the diversity that God has crafted!
Mile markers tell us where we are, and the progress we are making on our journey. There are also spiritual mile markers that point to where we are with God and our progress toward spiritual maturity. We tend to make up what we think is important to God, but God is clear on the mile markers that matter. In this devotional, we will look at four of those mile markers.
