Those who know
little of the supremacy of God's love live in a persistent state of fear. Fear
siphons away life. It drains our joy. It is a thief, murderer and destroyer.
God's love is constant, purifying, constraining, motivating, healing,
forgiving, freeing, perfect. Lord, You ARE love and I may only know You by
love. Enlarge my capacity to receive Your love and offer freely it to others.
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.
