I have
traveled to many wonderful places and am often asked which is my favorite.
Though many delightful locations come to mind, my favorite place is where I am
needed. There is no place better than to be in the right place, at the right
time, doing the right thing. God designs each of us to fulfill His purpose and
there is simply no better zip code on earth. I do, however, have a place on my
bucket list I haven’t been; I envision where I need to be spiritually, but it
still eludes me. I want to be there,
but obviously not yet enough. Blessed Lord, take me to the place I truly need
to be, a place of genuine humility, unfettered love and fruitful servanthood.
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.
