Some days start out more difficult than others. I am perfectly positioned for things to improve. The joy begins as I turn my thoughts to Him in whom I live and move and have my being. My weaknesses are the best stage upon which His Divine perfection can display. There is no conflict in declaring: “Bless the Lord oh my soul.” Father, I am nothing without You, but limitless within You. This is a good day.
A serious pursuit of godliness requires an equally serious renunciation of worldliness. Too often, we measure spirituality with false scales. While being wisely selective with our public vices we are less so with our private attitudes and perspectives. In reality, it is the thoughts and intents of the heart where the greatest battles must be waged; our actions will ultimately align with the condition of our hearts. Lord God, You know me inside out, You are not fooled by human facades. Plow my heart with Your Word and Spirit and leave nothing unturned. Refresh my inward man that I may outwardly glorify You in all places at all times.
