40 Days Towards Discovering My Purpose--Day 5

I am thankful this morning for God’s gift of life and his continual care for me. I thank him for all the marvelous blessings in my life. Although not everything in my life may be where I believe it should be at this moment, I know God does have a plan for me and he wants to give me his very best because his plans for me are plans for good, to give me his very best.

Chapter 5 begins by saying that “the way you see your life shapes your life….and determines your destiny.” If this is really truth, then Lord please help me to change my thinking and begin to see my life the way you see it. It is funny how our thinking can determine the outcome of so many things in life. Truly, Jesus meant what he spoke when he said, “as a man thinks, so is he”

Point to Ponder: “Life is a test and a trust”—Yes, Lord truly all of life is a test. Help me to please pay attention and pass what you present to me.

Verse to Remember: “Unless you are faithful in small matters, you won’t be faithful in large ones.”….Luke 16:10—Seeking your face daily, help me oh Lord to faithful in even this matter.

Question to Consider: “What has happened to me recently that I now realize was a test from God? What are the greatest matters God has entrusted to me?—The life change of no longer having a place of my own to live and worried about where I would lay my head, when God had a plan all along.

God I thank you for entrusting me to be a mother and grandmother, because my life has such an awesome influence on these individuals. Help me to always display, love and humility so that they may know that God is love unconditional.
