"Today Daily Devotional "

"If our hearts are not yet separated from the craving of worldly wealth, our soul-life is not yet on the cross and has not yet passed through the work of the cross.

Hebrews 10:34 speaks of a group of believers whose possessions had been plundered. Yet they "accepted [it] with joy." Not only did they accept it willingly, but they accepted it with joy. This is the result of the work of the cross.

The saints' attitude toward their possessions indicates whether their soul-life is living or being put to death."

Watchman Nee (1903-1972)
