Every person’s stride and pace is understandably different. At some
point in life we must each give up the childhood game of attempting to walk in
someone else’s footprints. It does me no good to compare my steps with those of
others. I must fulfill God’s appointed destiny and trust that His path for me
is the very best one. In the final analysis each stride taken in pursuit of His
will, no matter the size, is a step forward. Dearest Father, You have promised
guided steps for those seeking You and I believe it. May every footstep I take this
day lead me deeper into Your will. Lead me to Your highest and best.
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.
