A new
day, this day, offers another shot walking in obedience to the will of God.
Complications, diversions and agitations are always present, but the chance to
serve God this day will never return again, it must be taken now. As compelling
as distractions may be, I must push them aside and run toward the roar. I will
seize the day by passionately pursuing the opportunities God presents. I will
not permit fears, disappointments or carnal-longings to hold me back. This is
the day the Lord has made and I will rejoice and be glad in it! Dear Father,
deliver me from disorientation and direct my steps. In Your Mercy, release
fresh fire and divine focus to my heart. I delight to do Your will O God…this
day.
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.
