Persistence
is a needed characteristic for a life well lived. But stubbornness is like walking
in deep darkness since it causes us to keep hitting the same obstacles over and
over, yet preventing us from understanding what makes us stumble. It is foolish
to keep making the same mistakes, But the good news is that if all my mistakes
are new ones, I am actually making progress. Proverbs states: “The path of the
righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full
light of day”. Divinely infused wisdom accompanies the soul of the determined,
yet surrendered. Father, not my will or my way, You alone must guide every step
I take. In Your mercy, grant me a steadfast heart devoid of stubborn pride.
“This is the day that the LORD has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24 ESV. The table is set for a brand-new day. Only God knows exactly what is already prepared for my arrival in it. I must now leave behind days gone by and ready myself for new insight, a higher life, and greater things. Am I up for what today will bring? Only the day will tell, but the One who provides it will also carry me through it. One thing is sure; I will walk upon on sacred footprints since the Alpha and Omega has already trod this moment in advance, sprinkling blessings and divine opportunities throughout. I must pay attention so I don’t miss a thing He has placed along the path. Lord God, Lover of My Soul, today is the day You have made; I am so good with that and already rejoicing in what is to unfold. Lift me in Your arms and carry me through with faith, joy, and purpose.
