The rise and fall of each tidal
visit deposits treasures upon the sand. So it is with people that come in and
out of our lives. I am convinced that God orchestrates friendships. In fact
even the most painful relationships deposit value and wisdom into our lives.
Even passing strangers, who just for a moment drop through can be a divine
gift. Dearest Lord, thank You for the ebb and flow of people in my life.
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.
