Exploring
new possibilities is a part of the human construct that is a direct attribute
of our Creator. Every person is born with an inward passion for learning,
problem solving and adventure. The command to “Be fruitful and increase in
number, fill the earth and subdue it” is a central part of our internal
operating system. If these characteristics never fall under the daily guidance
of divine superintendence, we will waste our lives wandering around in a
personal wilderness. Lord God My Shepherd, bind my expeditions to Your perfect
will. Keep my nomadic heart fixed on You alone.
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.
