Good morning from Paul B. Johnson State Park, McLaurin, MS
Devotionals help us bring Scripture to a more practical application. They seem to make what we do and how we think more relevant to the world we live in. Jesus Calling by Sarah Young is a devotional given to me a year ago and has been one of my favorites this year. Today's entry is especially appropriate for where we are in our journey and the Ministry of Miles. I quote: "I am preparing you for what is on the road ahead, just around the bend. Take time to be still in My Presence so that I can strengthen you. The busier you become, the more you need this time apart with Me. So many people think that time spent with Me is a luxury they cannot afford. As a result, they live and work in their own strength-until that becomes depleted. Then they cry out to Me for help or turn away in bitterness.
How much better it is to walk close to Me, depending on My strength and trusting Me in every situation. If you live in this way, you will do less but accomplish far more. Your unhurried pace of living will stand out in this rush-crazed age. Some people may deem you lazy, but many more will be blessed by your peacefulness. Walk in the Light with Me, and you will reflect Me to the watching world." These words blessed me this morning and I pray, we both pray, they will bless you today and every day.
