Like pure, refreshing water hidden underground in a desert
cavern, our created purpose lies deep within us. The value and benefit of
drinking from its waters far exceeds the strenuousness of finding it. Whenever
I stray too far from His plan the Goodness of God pulls me back to my only
enduring source of life. He formed me to do His will and no other aspiration can
be substituted for it. Every earthly desire must align with His heavenly
designed plan. Father You created me with purpose and an innate capacity to
fulfill it. I so need Your daily grace. Help me to drink from Your still
waters.
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.
