Awake
in darkness, yet light approaches. Whether I know it or not, whether I believe
it or not, daybreak is marching toward me. Soon the world around me will be
bathed in brilliance, a new day
is dawning. Blessings are already arrayed, waiting for my arrival. Divine
wisdom has been released into the path before me and the needed resources deployed.
Angels are assigned and the forces of darkness on alert, this is the day the
Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in it! Lord, help me to recognize Your
approach in my darkest moments. May I seize new beginnings, divine
opportunities, a fresh start. Awaken my heart with readiness and fervor and use
me for your bidding.
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.
