Christian Devotional – September 15, 2012

VERSE:
Mark 3:35–“For whoever does the will of God, he is My brother and sister and mother.”

TRUTH:
Jesus is speaking and trying to help those gathered around Him to understand what it means to be part of God’s family. Jesus indicates that the family of God is made up of people who do the will of God and have the same goal and purpose that He does. Are we part of the family? Are we acting like we are part of the family on a daily basis?

RESPONSE:
Father, Your family is vast and You open up Your arms for more. If people are willing to lay down their own will and accept Your will for their lives, they can be part of the family. I commit to Your will and I desire it in my life today.
