NAF- Day Twenty-three


Today’s Scripture: As they were traveling on the road someone said to Him, “I will follow You wherever You go!” Jesus told him, “Foxes have dens, and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head.” Luke 9:57-58

Read Luke 13. How is Jesus calling you to deeper followership?


Spend time today meditating on the Rhea Miller’s hymn, I’d Rather Have Jesus.

 

Id rather have Jesus than silver or gold;

Id rather be His than have riches untold;

Id rather have Jesus than houses or lands

Id rather be led by His nail-pierced hand

Than to be the king of a vast domain,

Or be held in sins dread sway;

Id rather have Jesus than anything

This world affords today.

Id rather have Jesus than mens applause;

Id rather be faithful to His dear cause;

Id rather have Jesus than worldwide fame;

Id rather be true to His holy name.

What would you rather have Jesus than?
