You are forgiving and good, O Lord, abounding in love to
all who call on you.

THOUGHTS ABOUT
TODAY'S VERSE
Forgiveness
is such a sweet blessing. But God does
more than forgive! He cleanses and
forgets. His love is not metered out or
carefully rationed. He pours it out upon
us if we genuinely seek him as our God and Father.
MY PRAYER
O
Precious Father, I call to you wanting you to know how important your love and
forgiveness are in my life. Thank you
for sending Jesus to show your love and pay the debt of my sin. Help me to live today as your child: may
others see my joy and my passion, to you glory.
Through my Savior I pray. Amen.

People Follow Jesus
He
makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.
Psalm
23:2
Smart People Follow Jesus
The
world says, “He who fails to plan, plans to fail.” It says you’ve got to make
smart, detailed plans to succeed in life. You’ve got to study market trends,
and be in the know, so that you can be the early bird that catches the worm.
You’ve also got to keep looking over your shoulder because you never know when
your competitors are going to catch up with you!
Is
that how God wants you to live your life? Most certainly not! He wants you to
be a sheep. He wants you to take Him as your shepherd and rest in His love and
care for you! Leave all the “worrying” and working out of plans to Him. He sees
further than you can! And when you simply follow His leading, you will end up
walking in good success.
Once,
when I decided to sell my apartment, I didn’t prioritize studying the property
market to see if it was a good time to sell it. In fact, I found out that
someone else who had just sold off a similar-sized unit had done so at a price
that was an all-time low. He must have been in a hurry. Naturally speaking, he
spoiled the market for me.
In
any case, my wife and I felt that it was the right time to move. We just
decided to follow the Lord’s leading. So we put our apartment up for sale and
guess what? After only a few viewings, we sold our apartment at the price we
wanted! And when we bought our new apartment, we bought it at a price that was
at an all-time low! What Jesus did for me, He can do for you too.
My
friend, by all means, make plans and be diligent to know what you need to know
in the field of your industry and in the areas you’re going to make important
decisions. But first, seek and hear what Jesus is saying to you as you bring
your concerns and what you need to do to Him. Believe that He will lead you by
His Spirit and with His wisdom and perfect timing. And He will lead you to good
success in ways beyond anything that you can ever plan for!
