I have been through many small tremors, but only once
through a genuine earthquake. Having already lived in Costa Rica for a
couple of years I had become so accustomed to small tremors that I didn’t even
notice the big one until the ground began to truly heave. It is disorienting to
discover that everything can be shaken at once and it can last for such a long
time. We don’t expect the very ground on which we live to convulse, but
sometimes it does. In those bewildering moments, on what will I stand? Father,
You have proclaimed: “The Lord will be your confidence”. Lover of my soul,
You’ve set my feet on solid rock.
“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.
