Don’t Flex—Just Point to the Cross
“But may it never be that I would boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.” — Galatians 6:14 (NASB 1995)
In a world obsessed with likes, clout, and showing off, Paul says, boast in the cross.
Why? Because the cross ends the world’s hold on you. You’re no longer owned by what people think. You’re free.
Let the Spirit lead you into a life that points to Christ—not self.
Challenge:
Take inventory: what do you talk about most—yourself, your stuff, or your Savior?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, kill my pride. I want my life to boast in Jesus alone. Set me free from needing the world’s approval. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
