A
new day is dawning. Will I turn the page or will I try to rehash the
disappointments of yesterday or its predecessors? The challenges and
opportunities of today await me; there is little value in dreaming about what
could have been. This new day is another undeserved gift from the Ancient of
Days and I must seize it with renewed gusto. I do not want to disregard its
value by dwelling on the past nor waste time in anxiety about the future. Thank
You My Creator and Redeemer for today. You made it, You rule it, now I will
rejoice and be glad in it. My heart is attuned to Your Voice. Today.
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.
