Daylight Meditations

Psalms 89:14 (NIV) says, “Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; love and faithfulness go before you.” God’s justice is based on truth. Our hearts envy and stubbornly hold onto ‘our rights’. This divides our hearts and prevents us from grasping the truth that God’s love for all of us is the same and is deeper than we know. Should we not also let His love deepen ours for another person?

Faith is hoping for what we can't see. It is knowing God hears us. It is taking ahold of HIs hand, listening to His whispers of encouragement and letting Him know of our fears, loves and hopes. Let faith in Him, guide your prayers today as you listen.

Scripture tells us: Don’t repay evil for evil. Share in others’ sorrows. Do what is just and right. Might living with and in humility help us form the attitude of not seeking our own good, but another’s? To be like Jesus, is to take these words seriously, choose to love, choose to forgive, choose to do the right thing – every time.

Talking with God is our privilege, an honor that we often overlook. To be with Him, to have His attention is a priceless gift He pours into us life and love as we take time to be in His presence. Let today's scriptures remind you of these truths.

The truth of being free in Christ is explained in today’s meditation. It is sometimes hard for us to comprehend the reality of this as we tend to interpret freedom with movement and choices. The Scriptures speak of us being rescued from ‘the tyrannical rule of darkness’, and this rescue releases us from the chains of sin. Might we consider that this too, has freed us to move – to stretch high and wide into new places of spiritual growth in Christ.

Paul reminds the Philippians (and us!) to not fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray; encouraging us to let Jesus be the center of our life. He will also displace our worry, our fears and our doubts. When we choose to rejoice, and trust Him, He gives us a sense of belonging, of wholeness.

Every word God speaks is truth, life and holy. To speak truth is to speak life into another. To contemplate the truth is to integrate life into our being, letting it become us, that all that we speak is what the Holy Spirit has given us to speak – life and healing into the world that the world through Jesus’ life might know our Father’s love for each person.

As you listen to this series, Conversations with God, consider the greatest value of your best conversations. Were they not a time of getting to know someone? Did your heart find comfort in realizing someone wanted to you about you? that you in turn, were delighted to share in another’s life? This is how God sees it too. Yes, He know us. But, do we realize He wants us to know Him in the same way?

What is important to you today? What do you value? Does it consume your attention, is it the center of your life? Today’s meditation reminds us what a life with Christ is and should be. We are instructed to use our faith so Christ’s life can be released within us, so that His love rests in us and on us, becoming our center and source for living.
