Daylight Meditations

There may be times in our lives when work feels mundane, where efforts fall short and we question our purpose. If we are God's child, we have a destiny that may never 'look' exciting or exotic. Yet, God has ordered our steps and written a plan that if we align and choose to follow is of eternal value - to Him and for us. As one translation says, "we have become His poetry" fulfilling the destiny designed specifically for us!

When we are at a low point, feeling overwhelmed and needing help, God reminds us, "Be brave and courageous, and never lose hope. Yes, keep on waiting—for he will never disappoint you!" This is our comfort - that He hears us and that even our hope is from Him.

To become who we were born to be, begins when we believe who Jesus is. Our spirit is reborn and we become new creatures. It then becomes our deepest desire to learn about our identity, our purpose and our destiny. Today's meditation reminds us why we yearn to know more about God, to know God, and therein learn who we really are.

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?

God's thoughts about each of us are more than the sand on the earth. Knowing these thoughts focus on His love for us, we can trust Him to take care of us. We can keep company with Him, be open with Him and know that He will never stop doing good in our lives. We can, indeed, trust Him with all that we have, all that we are, all that we have yet to experience.

In this topsy-turvy world, it’s sometimes hard to make sense of the things that happen around us and to us. Making God the Lord of our lives gives us a perspective on reality that is sourced in God – and we gain His perspective. Doing life with God makes perfect sense. Don’t you think?

As a child of God we have been given many things, and direct access to Him is one of them. Many people yearn to please Him, to see Him and try all manner of ways to reach Him, yet our trust and belief of Jesus' death on our behalf gives us immediate access to Creator God who become our Father. We run through the throne room into His arms. His explosive love envelopes us as we lean in and trust Him to hold us still.

It’s interesting that one of the instructions we often hear is “to let peace rule”. The issue here is not so much that peace should rule, there’s no question about that! It is the instruction of letting it rule – of allowing it to control our thoughts and actions, our words and our attitude toward others. Father, may we allow You, the giver of perfect, unchanging peace truly rule our thoughts, our actions, our words and our attitudes today.

Each of us has been given divine gifts to contribute to the growth of others. As we allow the Holy Spirit to use these gifts through us, they are effectively applied and we are all built up and made perfect in His love. For Love to flourish, we must trust God with ourselves.
