What
makes the world’s high-end luxury cars so special? The difference between an average
automobile and the world’s finest is determined by the details. The near
perfection of the seams on the doors, instrument panels, seat stitching and
other interior parts combine to make the experience dazzling. While I have no particular
interest in possessing such a car, I most definitely 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. O Lord My Maker, I place my many
imperfections into Your perfecting hands. I am confident and thankful You will
finish the work You have begun.
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.
