Governed

In my praying this morning I was reminded how important it is that the Word of our God govern us. I petitioned Him today that His Word would govern how we think; the decisions that we are compelled to make today, the places we will go, the words we will say and the emotions we will feel. That today we will be governed by His Word.

Acts 20: 32 And now I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

Praying (PFT)!

ABBA, I am grateful for this page to come together with others of like faith and so I pray for each of us; HOLY SPIRIT, asking that You govern us with Your Very Own Word today. We see it is so very important and so much to our very own benefit and those we love that we be governed by Your Word. Many emotions may come today, some will hit us like a brick, others will creep up like an evil adversary, help us sort them for keeping or casting; to enjoy them and rejoice with much praise or cast them from us, rejoicing and giving praise and thanks to You that we have the power and grace to do so. We have looked again at the names entrusted to this ministry, some have been with us a long time, some have been depending for a long time on this ministry to faithfully stand with them; thank You for that, ABBA, and we desire to be faithful and fail not in this; we know You will not. And so I commend each one who comes to meet with You here today, that You will quicken to each heart the importance of Your Word to govern us; and I dare not fail to ask for healings and provisions, conviction and repentance in the very portions that will glorify the Name of JESUS. Thank You, ABBA.

Surprise!

Perhaps I could say the extent of my surprise is indicative of my degree of having given up. 

This is the 3rd Spring for my little lily. She has been faithful to push through the winter soil for three seasons and with each appearing she gave only leaves.

But this morning? Surprise! Delight and amazement and with much praise and gratitude I found this:

Certainly, the expected glory will surpass the present beauty but how foolish it would be of me to not celebrate what is while I wait for what is to come.

Can we get a life lesson from that? (You are invited to share your insights if you will.)

And our well-doing here just might be waiting.
