The
proliferation of information does little to actually change things. All the
knowledge in the world accomplishes nothing without understanding and proper
application. What I need more than information is the moral clarity and courage
to apply what I know. This comes only from God. I can blink my eye when I know
to do it, but more importantly, my eyes are genetically coded to function; I
must not let my knowledge get in the way of their created purpose. Oh God, My
Creator, without Your Divine Spark, without Your Wisdom, knowledge is useless.
Awaken my heart to Your Hand, Your Will and Your Ways in all things.
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.
