THANKFUL

Good morning, Jesus.

I’m annoyed, Lord, and don’t mean to complain, but …

Here comes that weirdo again, I’m overjoyed serving you, desiring to be faithful to do whatever you ask. I find true meaning and satisfaction being your hands, your feet and your mouthpiece here, but this guy is a real ding-a-ling. Why does he keep coming around me? I try to ignore him, but he won’t leave me alone. Are you listening, Lord? Why don’t you send him to Siberia or someplace?

Then you answer.

My child, open your heart to my workings. I keep sending him to you because you have what he is looking for. He’s never felt loved, nor wanted. He has not known acceptance but only rejection. Listen, I am the one sending him to you because he saw my Light of the world shining in you. He wants that Light too, but he doesn’t know how to find it. My Spirit draws him to you for you to share my Love and Grace with him. Just like I arranged for one of my faithful servants to share with you my message of grace when you were seeking, I want you to tell him that he’s no accident, that I love and accept him as he is, and he can find his life’s purpose in me! I’m trusting you with my message. Now, don’t you be a ding-a-ling, but go and share how I can give him new life and purpose.

Lord, forgive me. I repent. Use me to share your message of hope to all in this fallen and broken world. Only in you do we find our meaning and purpose.

Bless our friends and family facing disease and illness. May we be faithful to stand with them in your Light and Hope during these trying times, and may we all cling to you, never letting go.

Forgive our sins, heal our nation, spark a spiritual revival in each of us.

Sharing your message, Jesus. Amen.
