Tomato candy…really!?! This is one thing I didn’t even try! For real though, we still have some if you want a piece 😏! For me to even want to taste this candy, it would need a lot more than a little sugar added!
Have you ever wondered how some Christians can be so generous or so consistent at living for God? I think the secret is to first give Jesus everything instead of trying to add a little bit of Him into our lives. 2 Corinthians 8:5 talks about some people who “first gave their own selves to the Lord.” After that, it was easy for them to give specific things to God. Jesus has saved us from an eternity in hell, and the least we can do to thank Him is to give Him every part of our lives, not just a little bit added to our own agenda.
Things won’t be right between us and God if we live our own way and then add a little Bible. I’m glad you’re reading this Bible devotional right now, but I hope you’ll give God all of today, not just these couple minutes. It’s great to go to church, but we also need to live it out 24/7.
For candy to be good, it’s gotta be good all the way through. Instead of trying to just add a little bit of God into our lives, lets give Him control of everything and not hold back any areas of our life.
