“But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong;” I Corinthians 1:27 (ESV). In the Book of Acts, chapter 10, God gave two very different men in completely different cities, two perplexing visions that neither understood. Simon Peter and Cornelius the Centurion were on a collision course with divine destiny that only required their strict obedience, not their understanding. I too, have been sent on perplexing missions that turned out to be divinely-arranged, miraculous moments. God is never limited by my weaknesses, ignorance or confusion. He is only limited by my stubborn disobedience and unwillingness to trust Him. Father use me for Your divine purposes. Give me increased faith and abiding grace to take bold new steps of obedience.
“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.
