Divine
love is an incredible motivator, activating a host of godly attributes. The key
is learning to love others with God’s love, not our own. His Divine Love is
pure, not polluted with mixed motives. Earthly love, on the other hand, is
filtered through a swamp of self-centeredness, with only a trickle of pure love
making it through to others. There is hope for me however since I can at least
recognize the difference between His love and mine. Father, I want Your
purifying love to surge through me to others. Sanctify my motivations and clear
away the obstacles of pride and selfishness within me.
“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.
