I saw this question yesterday and thought it would be a good one to pass along.
What are you doing today that will outlive you?
That’s a pretty good motivator – assuming you are leaving a legacy that impacts others in a positive way!
Anyway, think about that today as you go.
18 Even when I am old and gray,
do not forsake me, my God,
till I declare your power to the next generation,
your mighty acts to all who are to come. Psalm 71:18 New International Version (NIV)
Just a simple prayer this morning.
14 Turn from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it. Psalm 34:14 New International Version (NIV)
Yesterday I started a fairly painful treatment on my knees called A-STYM therapy. When I say painful, I man ‘ouchie wawa’ painful. However this pain is supposed to bring about healing. The whole idea of the treatment is to break down the scar tissue and to create trauma for the muscles and tendons. This process will restart the healing process and eventually things should be better. YEAH! So the painful process of breaking down begins to create healing.
So it is with our spirits as well. When we are haughty and self seeking and go about it on our own, bad things may happen. But the Creator says he likes a broken spirit.
My sacrifice, O God, is a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise. (Psalm 51:17 NIV)
Because then he can lift us up. So today embrace your brokenness and let God be the healer! Then you like my patella tendon, can be on your way to better days!
The gun fired and the year has started. We are already into the second day! I am sure you have a list of things that you are going to straighten up, change and do differently, as all of us do.
So let’s get this year going. Let’s see some risk taking. Let’s see some transformation. and most importantly, let’s take advantage of every opportunity that we are given to bring glory to Him!
“So teach us to number our days, That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.” Psalm 90:12 NASB
