## Title: Lose Yourself ## Scripture: (Mark 8:35) “For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life because of me and because of the gospel will save it.” (NET) ## Observation: We are taught by culture that we must live for ourselves and do all we can to "find ourselves." Jesus says the opposite. He says we are to turn our lives over to His rule and follow Him by following His Word. Only then can we experience true and lasting freedom. ## Application: What do I need to turn over to Him? ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for the honor of trusting You with every area of our lives.
