Devotion for Thursday, April 5, 2018

“Yours is the day, Yours also is the night; You have prepared the light and the sun. You have established all the boundaries of the earth; You have made summer and winter.” (Psalm 74:16-17)

God invented time. It is something He made into which He has poured what we call the creation. This, along with all things, is in the hands of the Lord. Nothing apart from Him can happen; for He watches over all things that He has made. Abide in the Lord and see that His hand is upon all things. Know that He who made You has plans for You and knows what You need before You ask.

Lord God, I come from the place at the center of myself and cannot see clearly. I do not understand all of the things of this world, but react to what happens around me. You have caused the seasons of the world and the seasons of my life. Lead me, O Lord, according to Your goodness that I would walk with You all the days of my life. Show me Your presence daily.

Lord Christ, Savior who has come to lead all who look to You for solace, guidance and hope, help me now and always to see in You the glory You have throughout my life and for Your purpose. Help me overcome the doubts and fears that debilitate me that I would forever walk in the light You have shown to all generations. May I be faithful in the call You give me this day. Amen.
