DAY 23 OF 25

Take a minute to think about the things you HAVE to do. Things like going to school, cleaning your room, going to work, or showing up to practice. Now, think about some things you WANT to do—posting on Instagram, bingeing on Netflix, texting your friends, or going out to eat. 

The point is, for most things in life there are two very distinct categories: things we have to do and things we want to do. And rarely are the things you have to do the same as the things you want to do. But when it comes to living out our faith, we don’t have to pick and choose. In today’s verse, Paul tells us that God is hard at work, helping our WANT TO and our HAVE TO lists combine when it comes to following Him. 

Today, keep this in mind as you go about your normal routine: The more we follow Him, the more our desires will align with His.

About this Plan

Free People

It’s easy to see faith as just a list of dos and don’ts we have to keep in order to make God happy. But what if this view of faith is missing the mark? We’ll discover that Jesus didn’t come to keep us captive to a list of rules. In fact, just the opposite is true! Because of Jesus, we get to live as free people.
