A
seasonal shift brings change in the air; almost unperceivable at first, then
obvious signs emerge. I love how God works in both nature and in my life. There
is always something afoot. Just as I settle down new seasons arrive unannounced
and everything begins to change; grace for where I have trod recedes, grace for
what is next appears. I can uselessly complain or I can take hold of what is
ahead. There is no future in the past. Lord of All Creation, acclimate my heart
to what now approaches. Grant me capacity to accept a new measure of grace for
this new season. More of You, less of me.
“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.
