Have you ever had a time in your life when you wished to do something over? Wether it was a mistake or a missed opportunity, you kinda want to go back and get another run at it. Olympic athletes feel this on many occasions. They can train and train and train for years and then make a mental or physical error and wish for a do over.
Isn't it grand that God gives us a do over every day. We have His grace to begin again where we have made a mistake. He allows us to learn and grow. To me it is the best thing ever. I know He loves me no matter what. In Him I'm being perfected. Being perfected is a daily experience.
Lord, thank you for the grace to start over when we miss it, blunder our way along, run when we should have walked. Your grace is without limit and a commodity I value. Amen
So as I am heading down the mountain path I hear God speaking to me in my inner man. He is saying, "Never forsake my power that lives in your being. It is because of my Spirit, alive in you, for which the glory of Christ speaks to your heart."
I am in awe. There is a power in my inner being which knows, in an intimate sense, the love of God. That love is going to help propel me along on this new journey. When I encounter times of testing, trial, temptation to doubt, it will be the fire of Ezekiel which will ignite the flame of Holy Spirit to fill my heart and soul with the fullness of God.
I want to ride this vapor trail of God all the way down this mountain. I want to sense Him every moment. I want to be still, relaxed, holding nothing back and know He is God. The only way is to breathe Him in everyday. What joy!
