I returnd home from Annual Conference yesterday and I'm trying to catch up what didn't get done while I was gone. It feels like Monday. But, it is Thursday. So, I have one day to do five days of work.
Will I be alright? Yes, I will. Why? I only have today to live. I have to get Thursday's work done and I believe Monday through Wednesday will be covered.
I am making a choice. You must make this choice, too. Which takes precedence in my life? Which more aptly describes my outlook on the day: the devil is in the details or the Lord is in every little thing? Which is it? "Suddenly when I look around I no longer see anything but the tasks, problems and conflicts in my life." Or, is it as Mark 9: 8 says? "Suddenly when they looked around they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus."
Let's conduct ourselves today and everyday under the reality of Jesus' presence. I make that choice. Do you? We don't have to take matters into our own hands because that would be stealing from God. Trust Jesus. Ask him to open your eyes as he did the servant of Elisha long ago. (II Kings 6: 8-23)
It's Thursday but feels like Monday but either day, either way God is with us!
