DNOW Devotion: Find Favor

"So you will find favor and good success in the sight of God and man."  Proverbs 3:4

So hopefully y'all have been lovin on some people, whether it be someone who sits alone at lunch, that teacher that you swear has it out for you, or even your little sister (or brother). Those people can be hard to love, but guess what?

"If all you do is love the lovable, (do you expect a bonus?) anybody can do that."  Matthew 5:46

We know that God expects effort out of us, so what effort comes from doing what is easy?

So by putting forth effort in loving people, we reap success. We become co-conquerors with Christ destroying evil and death, and that is as successful as it gets!

So as you continue to love God and love others, remember that each action that does this is considered success in God's eyes, regardless of what the contradicting world view of success says.

Stay confident and stay focused!
