Today's OneWord is 'Testing'
Today is the day the Lord has made, and we are to be glad!
The Lord tests our faith, not just in the great crisis of life, but even more in the small unexpected events, such as a sudden sickness, spouses upset us, co-workers frustrations, lost keys, ice maker will not work, or an irritating interruption. The way we respond in these situations will indicate what is in our heart. What life does to us depends on what life finds in us. If we love and trust the Lord, we will leave the matter with Him and do what He tells us. However, if we question the Lord and rebel because we are not getting our way, we are in danger of not passing the test.
We must have a grateful heart. If we are in the habit of thanking the Lord in everything, including the painful experience of life, then the Holy Spirit will fill our hearts with love and praise instead of Satan filling us with bitter venom.
Rest assured "Massahs" (testing) and "Meriahs" (quarreling) are marked on our journey of faith. We can shut the door in Satan's face and pass this test. We are going to be challenged. However, we will not quit and give in to our fears. Let us stand boldly on Isaiah 41:10, "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand."
Let us be grateful and thankful in all situations no matter what. I am grateful to God that His mercies are new every morning.
