Devotional: The Long Path to Glory
Source: Operator-authored devotional (Luke 9:23–25 NKJV) · matt
We all have a talent to unlock — and a cross to bear. Our gift should be used for the glory of His Kingdom in some way. Our cross should be handed over to Him — but often, we carry it for miles on our own before we submit and take on the yoke of the Lord.
Identity, humility, calling, submission, and the danger of idols are all part of the long path to glory. The glory is not our own — it is His.
