Todays Scriptures
1 Sam 8, 9 &10
2 Cor 10
While reading 1 Sam. Rebellion stuck out most to me. The peoples rejection of God ruling over their lives, and their desire to be like every other nation really hit me hard. I can relate to that as well as being hidden among the stuff.
1 Cor. was also eye opening. Casting down imaginations is vital, but not so easy when you endulge them for a second. They grow roots fast and when that happens it becomes difficult to uproot them. The warning to not compare ourseves to others, but to let Christ/God be our standard at all times.
I pray today for the ability to see distractions from Gods purpose for my life. To accept the fact that he has created me uncommon and in that is beauty. To discover those hidden things, giftings, and lessons he has entrusted me with so far. To compare myself with the standard of what the Word of God says I should be and to be thankful for every step in the process toward his perfection of me.
