Seize the Joy!
Today's Devotional Reading: Heb. 5-8
December 12, 2009
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us." (Hebrews 6:18 NLT)
TODAY'S WORD
Imagine what you would do if someone told you that there was a special gift waiting for you at the top of the stairs and all you had to do is walk up a few steps and you could have it. It would not take you very long to get up those steps, would it?
At the top of those stairs are all of God's promises and plans for your life. All you have to do is walk up the stairs and you can possess all that He has in store for you. But you have to do your part. You have to take the steps necessary in order to take hold of the promises that are waiting for you. God wants us to slow down, be ourselves, lighten up and laugh more, stay positive (no matter what happens), refuse to worry and live to give. As you step out in faith, God will move on your behalf and you will begin to experience that abundant overflowing joy!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
God, Today I step toward the joy you offer me. I will live a life that glorifies You and begin to see myself as You see me-full of potential with a divine destiny! In Jesus' Name - Amen.
We sure love you!
Eric & Rita
