A week passes so quickly you don't even realise it.
This is us. This is me.
Hustle bustle.
Running around.
Getting busy.
Being busy.
Always busy.
There is always something to do, someone to meet, something to plan, something to think.
For goodness sake, slow down.
Take a moment.
Take a breather.
Take a pause.
Think about God.
Ponder on His love.
Give thanks for His mercy.
Be grateful for His blessings.
Be humbled by His discipline.
I give thanks to God....
For the salvation that has been granted to me. I did not work for this. I did not take an exam for this. Nothing in this world could help me qualify or obtain this salvation. No amount of money, worldly fame or glory could move me an inch closer to God for I am born sinful.
For the reminder that I do not praise or exclaim God in order to get things from God. Lord, teach me and remind me that my heart and voice seeks and worships you because I love you, because I want to be obedient, because I want to find out Your will for my life. I commit my plans, my fears, my thanksgiving. I pray for others. I pray for myself. I pray about desires. But Lord, you provide what is necessary. You will provide what will contribute to Your plan. Lord, help me to accept and be grateful for your providence. Not to ask for more, but to ask how more can I do for You.
