Passing
by the front window at daybreak I looked on the driveway and received a
wonderful surprise, there were diamonds everywhere; beautiful sparkles were
spread across the otherwise dull concrete. Upon further examination, it was dew
on small leaves reflecting a combination of moonlight and dawning sunlight.
Again, God had transformed the ordinary into something resplendent with beauty.
King of Majesty, I stand amazed in Your Presence. As surely as you spread
momentary treasures on the ground you spread eternal treasures throughout my
life. I am very grateful.
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.
