O-bservation: Paul the Apostle makes it very clear that our purpose as "Followers of Jesus" is not self promotion. Anything that we allow to swell our heads because of personal accomplishment is not in keeping with God's will.

S. O. A. P. Here's your 90 second AM devotional!

O-bservation: The plain truth about Jesus is that everything on this planet, and in the universe, and especially anything the devil would try to do, is under the feet of Jesus. Woohoo! And Jesus is the head over everything. Not only that, but Jesus fills everything there is to fill in every possible way it could be filled. A-pplication: Whatever...
