The slightest
touch of a rudder can change the course of a vessel. The same is true of my
soul. While I often seek something colossal to shift my course, God mostly uses
small things to guide me into His best. Scripture warns us to not despise “the
day of small things.” Every great oak begins as an acorn. Father, remind me to
pay attention to the smallest touch. May Your gentle hand direct my path.
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.
