Daylight Meditations

No other issue should matter when I believe, truly believe God really loves me. He keeps me from stumbling, His love covers me like a blanket, His compassion is new every moment. Love is kind, gentle and forgiving. Knowing my Father loves me is what matters most in this world - and the next.

To be chosen by God! What an honor, what a responsibility, and indeed we called for both. By faith, by hope we leave our nets and follow the Man who can see who we will become – for we shall be like Him, those who hold no record of wrong, who are gentle, kind and rely on God to work within us this life-transforming image of His Son, Jesus.

This meditation continues with Psalms 19, bridging the distance of the universe to our souls. It points to God's attention and intent of perfection is the same for us as it is for the placement of the sun, moon and stars. Who are we, God, that you pay such close attention to us? Every word You speak is truth. Everything You say creates life. May we recognize the depth of Your love for us. May we in turn, love others the same way.

Whether we have spent much time thinking about it or not, as God's children, we add flavor wherever we go. Our interactions are the sprinklings of God's grace, spiritual and eternal blessings to grace the lives of the lonely, the sad ones, and those who are burdened. We don't often know who they are. We are just to be a savory moment that makes their day a little better.

Psalms 19 leads us to consider God from the expanse of the universe He created to the innermost essence of who we are and what we think. This meditation focuses on the first six verses, taking us out into space to view God's greatness from a heavenly perspective.

God has given us all we need to live under His protection: faith, truth, salvation, His very word and His Spirit. We are well equipped to stand firm on this earth, pushing back the darkness in the protection and power of His Name.

Are you tired? Do you wonder when and if the demands on your time will ease? We know we need to carve out time to rest, yet it is an easy thing to trade for getting one more thing done. The truth is only as we trust God with our lives – the very moments of each day, will be able to let go of the work, the plans, the projects, the schedules, the demands that interrupt and the weariness of it all. God gives us permission to rest. It’s a trust issue. Trusting God to hold our world together as we step off the merry-go-round and get our bearings once again.

We are told Christ’s resurrection is our resurrection too. Wow! Might that we would embrace that truth and realize we are "living letters written by Christ, not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God". Let us believe this and know that we carry within the glory of the King of the universe. Let us bow and worship the Lord who trust us with Himself.

Our lives are the most truthful witness of the value and change that a commitment to Jesus brings. As we think and speak the Truth in love, we release life into the lives the others, which in turn, generates hope of a better way to live now. Listen to this meditation with a heart that sees and hears what God's Spirit is doing.

As you listen to these scriptures, contemplate the ways God shows His care for you. No matter where you are, where you go, or what you do, He is always right there with you. His thoughts about each of us, are more than the grains of sand this world holds. Never are we out of His thoughts. How secure, how safe it is to be with Father God, who knows you, and loves you without reserve.
