Only ONE to boast about.




Many like to boast about themselves or a sports team or their children or job or money or whatever but when we get right down to it their is only ONE who deserves to be bragged about....Jesus our Lord.



2 Corinthians 10:17-18



17 “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.” 18 For it is not the one who commends himself who is approved, but the one whom the Lord commends.



Basically in the context of the above verse Paul had been accused of boasting about his ministry but here we see Paul making it clear to all their is only ONE who deserves the boasting and that is Jesus. For when we get right down to the nitty-gritty it don't matter what we think about ourselves it will matter what the Lord thinks of us and what we have done in service and obedience to Him. God is the ONE who approves and disapproves and His opinion is the only one that counts in the end!



So what are you boasting about today???? Jesus or something else?
