| Be Devoted |

| THE SCRIPTURE |
| “Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” |

Being devoted to something means you are loyal to it
by giving of your time, affection and resources. What are you devoted
to? Many people today are devoted to certain restaurants, television
programs and even their cell phones. And there’s nothing wrong with any
of that, but we have to examine our own hearts and see if we are being
devoted to what God has called us to. Are you being devoted to the
people God has placed in your life? Are you honoring others above
yourself? The world’s system says to “look out for number one —
yourself,” but God’s system says “look out for others, and I will look
out for you.”
Today, as you examine your own heart and life, ask the
Lord to show you ways that you can honor others. One way is by being
faithful to your word. Be a person of integrity and honor. As you live
your life devoted to one another, you are honoring God. And He will
repay you for your kindness and reward you in this life and in eternity!
