Walking
is merely a series of steps. Each stride distances me from something behind and
propels me toward what is ahead. Giant ones, tiny ones, fast ones, slow ones,
intense ones, easy ones; each step counts since no matter the size, progress is
made. The walk of faith is no different. When prompted by obedience to the Miracle
Maker, every act of faith, whatever its size, takes us deeper into holy space
where everything is possible. Lord, keep my steps firmly centered in Your will.
If I should stumble, still I am safe, knowing I remain in Your capable hands.
Teach me to walk boldly in the midst of the miraculous as You order and guide
my steps.
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.
