I am
thankful that God does not hold grudges against His children. While I have
rightfully felt His displeasure at my failures, one true tear of repentance
opens the floodgate of His forgiveness. His anger lasts but a moment but His
favor endures for a lifetime; sorrow may fill the night but overwhelming joy
comes at daybreak. Since my Redeemer washes away my constant failings, who am I
to hold hatred toward those who have harmed me? Father, though I fall short of
Your greatness, Your favor remains. Cleanse my soul of all acrimony toward
others and teach me Your ways.
“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.
