The most damning thing in the world is self-righteousness!

Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Jesus dines with you because you open your heart to Him, and you dine with Him because He provides everything you need. He couldn’t share a meal with you if your heart wasn’t open to Him, and you couldn’t share with Him if He didn’t bring the provision. So, open your heart wide. He will come with the
love you long to feel, the joy you can’t create on your own, and the peace you currently lack. Just open the door to Him, and He will stay forever. How amazing is His love that brings such a wonderful guest to dwell in such a humble heart!

When Saul went out looking for his father’s lost donkeys and didn’t find them, he instead encountered Samuel and found a kingdom. Did he lament over not finding the donkeys? Would he have wanted others to sympathize with him? In the same way, when we
miss out on worldly things but find the kingdom of God through that loss, should we be sorrowful or expect others to pity us? No, we should rejoice over the blessed trials that lead us to eternal riches.
