The
table is set for a new day. As Creator and Host only God knows exactly what is
prepared to be set before me. I must now leave behind simple-minded ways and
ready myself for new insight, 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. This day I will walk on sacred steps, the Alpha and Omega
has already trod this moment in advance. Lord, today is the day You have made;
I am good with that and already rejoicing. Lift me in Your arms and carry me
through with faith and joy.
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.
