While I have grown spiritually
over a lifetime I continue to struggle with the same basic human issues. This
discouraged me as a younger man, causing me to question the veracity of my
faith, but my response is different these days. I am now actually encouraged by
the knowledge that it is the work of God’s grace upon which I must wholly
depend; it always has been, it always will be. While I must still strive for perfection,
it is the Lord Himself who brings Sonship into full manifestation. Father, I gladly
trust upon Your good work in me. You provide a liberty and confidence that
self-assurance never could.
“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.
