Two words came to mind while in
prayer: ”give space.” The Presence of God can occupy any space, but may not be
recognizable in the junk pile of an overstuffed life. I once entered a simple
greenhouse surrounded by Moscow’s late winter’s ice and snow. Inside were
beautiful green herbs and vegetables; life in the midst of frozen tundra. Lord,
You own me. I want to yield every space to You. Grace for today.
“This is the day that the LORD has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24 ESV. The table is set for a brand-new day. Only God knows exactly what is already prepared for my arrival in it. I must now leave behind days gone by and ready myself for new insight, a higher life, and greater things. Am I up for what today will bring? Only the day will tell, but the One who provides it will also carry me through it. One thing is sure; I will walk upon on sacred footprints since the Alpha and Omega has already trod this moment in advance, sprinkling blessings and divine opportunities throughout. I must pay attention so I don’t miss a thing He has placed along the path. Lord God, Lover of My Soul, today is the day You have made; I am so good with that and already rejoicing in what is to unfold. Lift me in Your arms and carry me through with faith, joy, and purpose.
Father help us to work with you as you clean each room, every nook and cranny of our life. We are the clay you are the potter, help us to trust you more Daddy.
