Today's Scripture Passage: Philippians 4:6-7
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Today's Scripture Message:
I love to think of God not only as my Heavenly Father, but as my very best friend. That ear of wisdom that hears all that I say and sees all that I do. That no matter what, He is listening and shaping my path that my steps fall exactly as intended according to my need and His need of me. I am comforted as things occur around me and instead of asking why, I ask what?
You remember a time when you were out with your friends and you said or did something that sparked your friend to give you “that look” and the first thing that came out of your mouth was “what?”. You didn’t exactly understand why they were giving you their best “STOP IT glare” and needed to understand what you were doing that awarded you that silent but well felt “I disagree with you” look. To ask “what?” always invited a lesson which led to the “why”. As it is with God, in all that I face, in all that is happening around me I ask “what” that it be revealed exactly that which I am to see so that my decision/action is unmistakably within His will. Nothing I ask of him, glory to God is unheard, regardless of how great or how small. Begin with what? And He will show you Why?
Prayer for the day:
Father, in your grace and mercy direct me always to you. In good and bad times, rough and easy moments, times of confidence as well as insecurity…help me to seek you first in every step I take, that all I think, say and do are within Your will, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
Thought for the day:
“You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers. You can tell whether a man is wise by his questions.”
~ Naguib Mahfouz
Goal for the Day
Ask What, so you understand Why then move on to the solution.
