TODAY’S VERSE
I do not treat the grace of God as meaningless.
Galatians 2:21 (NLT)
TODAY’S PRAYER
It is easy to take life for granted. How often do we wake up in the morning and go through our day complaining, moaning, and bitter over life, forgetting all the good things that we have? How about people? How many times do we treat those who love us as if they were nothing special? We start to take advantage of their faithfulness and love for us. How often do we do this with God? We do precisely what Paul said that we should not do. We treat the grace and love of God as if they were meaningless. We live as if God didn’t exist. Paul knew too well that with our humanness, our bent toward rebellion, that sooner or later we would forget. And so he made a conscious effort not to treat the grace of God with disrespect. Paul fought spiritual pride and his bent toward entitlement. He did this by being purposeful in the way he lived. We can do the same. The best way to be faithful to your wife is to be purposeful in loving her. Likewise, we will refrain from treating God’s grace disrespectfully by being intentional in our relationship with Him. Today remember. Remember all that God has done for you. Remember His grace, faithfulness, forgiveness, and unconditional love toward you. Worship Him, praise Him, surrender your will to His control. Dedicate this day and all your days to His service. Humble yourself before Him and remember who you are without Him. May we join Paul and never treat the grace of God as meaningless.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, how You have lavished Your grace on me. How You have forgiven all my sin. How You have rescued me over and over again. Forgive me for forgetting. Forgive me for my disrespect and for taking You for granted. Today, I come and worship You and praise You for Your grace toward me. In Jesus’ name.
AMEN
