“Now I mean this, that each one of you is saying, “I am of Paul,” and “I of Apollos,” and “I of Cephas,” and “I of Christ.” Has Christ been divided? Paul was not crucified for you, was he? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?” (1 Corinthians 12-13)
To whom do we belong? Is it to one whom we admire? Is it to one who has taught us? It is good to have mentors, but there is only one Who is Lord of all. The One through whom all things have their being, the One who made all things, is the One who is worthy of all honor and praise. It is He who is Your Savior and this is He of whom Paul speaks. Come to the One who saves.
Lord, teach me the way of salvation that I may walk in the way of truth. Guide me according to Your never-failing Word in all that I need to know in order that above all things, I may praise You. Guide me, O Lord, in Thy Spirit to now and always walk in Your will. Let me see through those who would get in Your way in order to live the truth which You have revealed for all people.
Truth made flesh, my Lord and Savior Jesus, guide me now and always in the way of truth that I would walk with and in You in the way You have taught Your disciples. Lead me always to have no other gods before You, the Triune God who is in all and through all. May I always abide in You and have good and godly priorities. Lead me, O Lord, in the way of truth. Amen.
