I will pour water on the thirsty lands and streams on the dry ground.(Isa. 44:3)
In my quiet time today I came across this from Max Lucado......
I hope you find it as thought provoking as I did.
Here is God's Agenda for you day... To make you more like Jesus.
"God decided from the outset to shape the lives of those who love Him along the same lines as THE LIFE OF HIS SON."
Jesus felt no guilt; God wants you to feel no guilt.
Jesus had no bad habits; God wants to do away with yours.
Jesus faced fears with courage; God wants you to do the same.
Jesus knew the difference between Right and Wrong; God wants you to know the same.
Jesus served others and gave His Life for the Lost; we can do likewise.
Jesus Dealt with Anxiety about Death; you can too.
God's Desires, His Plan, His Ultimate Goal is to make you into the Image of Christ.
Father... How I praise You, and thank You that this was Your desire, and plan for me, even before the world was formed!! And blessed Father, I praise You that You will perform it in me!! Not by my might, or my power, but by Your Spirit!!
