Drawing from the Apostle Paul’s Epistle to the Philippians, this lesson challenges believers to examine their spiritual walk[cite: 45]. Rather than becoming comfortable or complacent, we are called to pursue a deeper, passionate relationship with Jesus Christ[cite: 45].

Hymn Meditation — I Surrender All (J.W. Van Deventer)[cite: 45]:
“All to Jesus I surrender, all to Him I freely give[cite: 45]. I will ever love and trust Him, in His presence daily live[cite: 45]. All to Jesus I surrender, humbly at His feet I bow; worldly pleasures all forsaken, take me, Jesus, take me now[cite: 45].”

GOD Bless You All. : )[cite: 45]
