Day 14
All circumstances are opportunities for Him to shine and me to fade. I’m learning. Long ago this was an attitude in my head knowledge of God’s grace, but more recently it has become obvious that my heart, my soul, my very being has been miraculously transformed by this knowledge.
I have developed a precept the last ten years. It is summarized in a quote I’ve created to live my life by, just because I’ve learned that prioritizing is not only beneficial to me, but necessary. It is: “If it doesn’t matter in five years, it doesn’t matter in five minutes.”
Today’s Scripture: “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall, but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not be faint.” (Isaiah 40:29-31)
Prayer: O Lord, I pray for the wisdom, the strength, the endurance, and the heart of thanksgiving that Your word promises, and that even as I age, I will find strength beyond my own to accomplish Your purposes with joy and daily renewal because You are the Lord of my life. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
