Hunger
is a mystery to me, sometimes I try to be hungry but cannot, other times I am
famished and thankful for even the smallest morsel. Spiritual hunger is no less
a mystery. Today I awake with inward readiness. Even the smallest thing can
inspire me when I’m ready to receive. This day is brimming with everything I
need for life and godliness. God has saturated every moment beforehand; what
noble things await discovery? LORD of All, this is the day You have made, I am
rejoicing in it already. Grant to me good discernment and bold faith. May Your
will dominate every desire, Your presence every step. I am hungry.
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.
