Today’s Thought “Working On A Building” G. Ward

“Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come.” 2 Corinthians 5:17

I’m contemplating my servant-hood on today: I’m bought with a price (1 Cor.6:20), encouraged in being taught to number my days (as they are few - Ps.90:10-12), admonished to absolutely deny myself when seeking to follow Jesus (Mt.16:24). My reconciliation unto these great offerings have become less difficult for two reasons; I’ve established a practice in surrender to the Holy One and I received my AARP card years ago. The brevity in my existence celebrates today’s opportunity to trust HIM more. Mother and Father taught how essential it was to wear clean underwear because the possibility of accident or sickness may land you in the presence of medical personnel embarrassed if not suited properly. If you don’t consider change on today (cf. Ro.10:13, 1 Pe.1:16), the Devil won’t care if your drawers are torn, tattered, or filthy – he’ll receive you as you are…

Happy Thursday!
