Daylight Meditations

Proverbs 27:19 says, As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart. God advises us to be careful what we desire, cautions us to think and speak with honest hearts. Jesus told us, For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.(Mt 6:21). As you listen today, consider what do you treasure?

What a beautiful promise and hope we have in Jesus' prayer to Father God, "I have revealed to them who you are and I will continue to make you even more real to them, that they may experience the same endless love that you have for me, for your love will now live in them, even as I live in them!" May we let this prayer sink in, that God so loved us, that the focus of Jesus' life was to love us whole-heartedly, a sacrifice of His life so we might truly live.

Join the psalmist's praise for the greatness of God. As generations praise and pass on, God remains the same - in His greatness, in His compassion, in His magnificence.

Although we generally are unable to see the spiritual realm it is as real as what we can see. Our world is under the influence of the spiritual realm and freedom from oppression, hatred and resentment is experienced as we believe in Truth about who we are, who Father God is, how we have been equipped to live in His strength. For it is "in Him [Jesus] we live and move and have our being."

We have the experience of light and darkness every day. In our physical realm, there is day and night. In the spiritual realm, it is life or death. Jesus taught, God is light and there is no darkness in Him. This more than we can understand, yet it is totally true. God's Spirit give life through trusting Jesus, and this life from God dispels the darkness in and around us. We are transformed into the image of Jesus. Trust Him to shine in and through you. Be light and love in your world today.

It was Jesus' prayer before being arrested that we would be blessed by our Father. Jesus speaks clearly and without pretense with God as he asks that we benefit from his big 'ask' - "make them holy by the truth". He could have asked for our comforts in this world, or for taking us out of the world, but he knew the very core of existence here was to live spiritually alive and to receive our strength from God. Being holy is to be light and love in our world that is seeking both to see and to be seen.

We don't often think of God being loyal to us. Yet, He listens for our prayers, answers our prayers, not because we are worthy or He is required to serve us, but because He loves us so deeply. He takes care of us, knowing what we need before we ask. Consider the simple prayer of the Psalmist who acknowledges the authority of a God who listens and responds, loving us personally, looking out for our best.

Today's meditation continues our examination of our hearts, reminding us that our gift of freedom is through forgiveness. So, we too, must free others, no longer slaves to our unforgiveness. Let us freely give not only to others, but ourselves as well!
