Blessings come in many forms.
Some are huge and obvious, but most are simple and come unannounced: a thought,
a smile, a taste, a touch. It strikes me how unpretentious God is. He can work
on any scale, yet stoops low to quietly craft a constant stream of unembellished
blessings into our lives. He does not hold back for our lack of acknowledgement;
His unrequited love pours forth without restraint. Lord God, Source of All
Blessings and Glorious Benefactor, sin has dulled my senses and I am slow to
see, but in this moment of reflective contrition I glorify You for Your humble
affection.
“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.
