TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
Catch for us the foxes, the little
foxes that ruin the vineyards, our vineyards that are in bloom.
Song of Solomon 2:15, NIV.
Song of Solomon 2:15, NIV.
TODAY'S WORD:
Everyone has opportunities to get
upset and be frustrated every single day. Sometimes it’s the little things—we
can’t find the car keys, traffic is backed up, somebody was rude, or what
should have taken an hour ends up taking four hours. Something happened and now
you are frustrated and all bent out of shape. There will always be something
that can sour your day, but if you are going to live in victory, you have to
maintain the right approach. You can’t let the little foxes spoil the vine. In
other words, don’t let the little things in life spoil the harvest God has for
your future.
I've heard it said, “Life is 10%
what happens to you and 90% how you respond.” Make sure you respond to life
with an attitude of faith and expectancy. Sure, things may irritate you, but
don’t let that irritation last into the next moment. Let it go. Don’t try to
control everything around you. Instead, release it to God knowing that His
plans are for your good, and He is leading and guiding you in the path of
blessing.
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
Father, today I
choose to hold on to peace. I won’t let the little things upset me and steal my
joy and peace. I choose to trust You and praise You for what You are doing
today and in the future of my life in Jesus’ name! Amen.
