Tomorrow Is Sunday
"REJOICE NOT OVER ME, O, MINE ENEMY, FOR WHEN I FALL, I SHALL ARISE; WHEN I SIT IN DARKNESS, THE LORD WILL BE A LIGHT TO ME." MICAH 7:8
I pray this little message and the devotional that follows are blessings to you.
Another weekend, the time working people use to accomplish all the things at home that their workday requirements won't allow them to achieve.
As you go about your busy day, please be mindful of the reality that you are an heir of the Kingdom. Oh, you may be incognito as you tinker with the car, mow lawns, mop floors, change beds and shop for groceries, but you indeed are an heir to the high realm of Heaven.
Your Father is the King of kings and Lord of lords and you are precious to Him.
You may wonder why, if you are so greatly beloved, your life has taken the turns that it has. Turns you could not foresee in your earlier years, turns that have led you far from your dreams. If you are a delight to your Heavenly Father, why is He not opening the windows of heaven and pouring out blessings upon you that you cannot contain?
Perhaps He is.
Perhaps you simply don't define "blessing" in the same way He does.
Perhaps when it is raining and it appears the weather will curtail the fun you've planned, your Father sees the rain from a different vantage point -- perhaps He sees the rain as the necessary preparation of the soil of the garden of your life that will bear fruit for you into not only your future years but into eternity.
Your Father always has long-range goals in mind. Your Father does not provide merely for the short term. No. His plan for you transcends the fleeting delights of time and opens the way for you to reside in the great wealth of the eternal.
As you go to our Father's house tomorrow, go with open ears and open minds and open hearts. Go to our Father's house prepared to be filled to the brim with His presence, His provision, His power, His love.
