What
makes a ride in one of the world’s finest cars so special? The difference
between an average automobile and the world’s finest is determined by the
details. For instance, the near perfection of interior seams; doors,
instruments, stitching, all precisely uniform is dazzling. While I have no
interest in possessing such a car, I want my life to reflect the same quality
of craftsmanship. There should be absolutely no separation between what I
believe, what I say and what I do, in other words, seamlessness. Only the
Perfect One can accomplish this. Lord, I place my many imperfections into Your
perfecting hands.
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.
