Daylight Meditations

Today's meditation is based on selected scriptures from Romans 8. Who are we? Our identity is found in God, as a member of His family, as His child, given the rights of heirs and entrusted with an inheritance. His Spirit in us gives us a sense of belonging.  Today's meditation was originally broadcast on June 12, 2020.

Jesus overcame the world, and He helps us overcome our troubles by living in His peace, because we have the Holy Spirit of peace. Our troubles are not light nor do they seem momentary, but it is our perspective that must be adjusted. Only in light of eternity, with the view of God’s presence and our hope for an eternal future will  it all look different. If we will look beyond the physical world we live in and step into His kingdom which is also here, His peace is also in reach we will experience life instead of a dying moment. Our energy will be renewed and our hope restored in the midst of pain and trouble, indeed.

The amazing fact of being 'in Jesus' is that whatever happens in our lives, whatever we do, God has promised to work it toward His purpose for us. It means our best intentions, may fail, our hard work may not be enough - but God is. God takes eternal perspective on our everyday life and says, "this is good. I can work with this." It is the perspective of redemption, every day.

In Proverbs we are encouraged to fill our thoughts with God's words until they penetrate deep into our spirit. As we unwrap His words, they will impart true life and radiant health into the very core of our being. The result is living in the power of God's love which sees no record of wrong done to it.

We can live with confidence that as God's child, God's will for our life is established. We don't know the outcome of today, or what will happen to us tomorrow, but our trust in God's care and love for us, assures us that not one moment is lost or wasted in the economy of His Kingdom, where we now exist, in Jesus.

Billy Graham said, " The will of God will never take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us."  As God's children, we will be guided, led and taught where to go and what to do. We will be equipped for the unexpected and we will teach others for how to live with expectancy. Grace says, I will always love you. You can call Me and I will answer. You can look for Me in those dark and difficult times, and see that I never left your side."

Being 'in Christ' frees us to be who we want to be, who God says we are - His children. We are protected, we are secure, we are sealed and we are forever free. Being with Jesus, God sees us complete and whole. Father, give us eyes to see this too. Let us see what you see, that our past is gone and that our future is already here - we are already with Jesus and with You.

God is Love. Love is from Him and it is because of Him that we can love. Yet, as deep as our love may be for others, His love for us is even more powerful, so that nothing and no one can separate us from Him. Not even ourselves. His love is even, unwavering, without interruption. As you listen today, let Him love you and show you why He loves you so much.

Faith, confidence, God's blessings and work within us is that we will become more like Jesus. Much of that is accomplished through our confidence in God's strength to accomplish His will through us, our hope and desire live lives worthy of His name and purpose and to trust He will complete it perfectly.
