Thoughts for another day

Mar. 11, 2014.

Today's verse:  1 Cor. 10:31. Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.  (KJV)

(Pls. read the above before you read further.  Thanks)

When you begin your day, is God Omniscient in your life.  When you think of all things you are to do today, is God a part of everything you are to do and will He be the beginning and the end of whatever it is that you are doing or will be doing today.  If you have Him with you, then you’re in safe hands for none can match what God can accomplish through you if you’re submitted to Him.

In all of life’s activities, we have to grapple with the unknown and the difficult.  Everything we want cannot be served on a platter for life consists of both the easy and the difficult.  We may notice and see how someone else is having a good time and we’re having a bad time with all the problems having landed at our doorsteps and it’s only natural to feel God has been a little unfair.  But is God unfair?  Not at all, because with every trial He allows us, He also sends Grace to manage the trial.  And after the trial is over, He sends blessings to match or even exceed the difficulty level of the trial. 

Opt therefore to be with God for though for a while it may seem to be a little difficult, for that’s what the devil lies to us saying God says, don’t do this, or that or not this, not that, etc. over the long stretch we see how good the precepts of God are and He clears the path on which we walk so there’re no rough edges that may make us tumble.  You see, He goes before us and makes us secure with His Presence.  Therefore, like Paul, I also say, whatever you do, wherever you are, do everything for the glory of our beloved God.  It will be worth it.
