Patience is not
my strongest attribute. I know that I need patience, I just don't like waiting
for it. Difficult times inflame my determination for things to change more
quickly. I show contempt for the riches of God's kindness when I am impatient
with His processes. Lord, I truly do need patience, and the lessons it brings.
Help me to accept Your pace, to not miss anything, to take it all in. Lord
Eternal, I await.
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.
