I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Psalm 16:8
Recently finished a little project.
Sitting behind a large microphone, I read my entire devotion out loud.
Every single one.
Took over 16 hours and boy was it fun!
I’ve always enjoyed acting or reading aloud to my students or at church, so this adventure was right up my ally.
But, it was so exhausting.
Sitting there, wanting each word to portray the correct emotion or meaning does take it out of you. Went to bed at 8:30 two of the nights!
Listening to my voice in the headphones, it almost seemed surreal.
What, God, do you want me to share? How do you want your message conveyed?
As I kept reading month after month, the message became clear.
Tell them how much I love them.
Tell them how faithful I am to them.
Tell them how faithful I always will be to them.
Warn them of the lies they still believe.
Remind them of their choices between life and death.
Tell them I’ll help them, every step of the way.
Tell them life won’t be easy, but I can give them peace.
Only if they choose Me.
God is so good to us, and we often forget Whose we are or Whose power lives in us.
We forget and forge on alone, battling this and that in our human strength alone.
Purpose again to live for Him.
Purpose again to trust only in Him.
Purpose again to put your hand in His, allowing Him to walk you down the path He has specifically just for you.
