THANK YOU LORD!​

Luke 24:38 – Devotional

Luke 24:38

“- – Why are you troubled? Why do doubts arise in your hearts?”

When given the news that his wife would finally in their old age have a son, the father of John the Baptist, doubted. What he had been praying for was about to be Divinely fulfilled – – but he could not believe it!

Before we are too critical of Zacharias, how many times have we prayed for God to do the impossible and then doubt that it would happen? I think if we were honest we would have to say that it is far too often!

I want to interject at this point that I feel many of our prayers are self-centered and selfish. I like to call them; “Make me feel good prayers.” These prayers stray from allowing God to use the circumstances in our life to bring Him glory, to make my way easy so I will feel good! Oops! I just stepped on my own toes!

As I grow older I count each day a blessing from God to be used for His divine purposes. The time we have to do God’s will is limited for all of us. There is never a good time to procrastinate!

At this time of the year when so many people work themselves into a frenzy to do just the right thing, remember that the right thing is always to give God thanks for His precious gift of our Lord Jesus. THANK YOU LORD!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
