What are you holding onto because letting go feels like losing part of yourself?

Sometimes we cling to recognition, control, status or being right because they help us feel secure. But Philippians 2:6-7 shows us a very different kind of strength in Jesus: he knew who he was, so he did not need to cling to status.

In this 5-minute Christian devotional, we explore why real strength can sometimes mean opening our hands. We’ll also look at David in 1 Samuel 24 and discover how trusting God can free us from the need to grasp for position, praise or control.

You are already loved by God. You do not need a title, applause or the final word to prove your worth.

Subscribe for a new 5-Minute Daily Devotional every day and join us as we learn to follow Jesus in ordinary life.
