Previous Daily Devotional About the best rewards of life… John 16:33 "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." (NIV) If you look at the lives of the people in your life who have money, power, fame, and worldly success, look deep and you may see something lacking. Look deep. Look deep and you may see the worldly reward of others often comes with spiritual emptiness. Look deep within yourself and you will see it is better to have inner peace, even in your pain, than to have only your worldly rewards and live in spiritual emptiness. Many of the people you know only live for worldly rewards. Their inner life, if you could see it, would be a life full of emptiness, torment, meaninglessness, depression, and loneliness. It is because people live for worldly rewards and receive emptiness, torment, meaninglessness, depression, and loneliness that so many people drink, use drugs, become addicted, as well as living a life full of anger and hate. Think long and hard about this issue. Do you want the world or do you want Christ alive in you? Satan will offer you the rewards of the world, but do you want the rewards of the world and all the pain in the world? God will not offer you the world. God will offer you His only begotten Son dieing on the cross for you…hoping above all hope you accept Christ and receive His reward of eternal life. What reward will you choose today?
