12/19 1 Corinthians 1:28-31
God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important, 29 so that no one can ever boast in the presence of God. 30 God alone made it possible for you to be in Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made Christ to be wisdom itself. He is the one who made us acceptable to God. He made us pure and holy, and he gave himself to purchase our freedom. 31 As the Scriptures say, “The person who wishes to boast should boast only of what the Lord has done.”
BOAST
Our boast is in the Lord Jesus and His accomplishments. He freely gives us wisdom, mercy and grace as we need it and more than we need. We can live with confidence knowing that Jesus takes care of us. He will never leave us. The world cannot defeat us. Jesus is Lord.
