It is heartbreaking to see families torn apart, so much anger and hatred on public display and evil ways on the rise. With increasing darkness all around, heaven looks more attractive than ever. But we do not have to wait for heaven to be delivered from evil, we have already been transferred to into the kingdom of God: “He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son,” Colossians 1:13 (ESV). So, my prayer this day is that of King David: “Keep steady my steps according to your promise, and let no iniquity get dominion over me,” Psalm 119:133 (ESV). As darkness deepens even the smallest candle burns brightly. We are light in this dark world, and I desire to shine as far and wide as The LORD wills. “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven,” Matthew 5:16 (ESV).Father by Your grace, make it so.
“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.
