Wednesday, June 13, 2012 – 1 Kings 13,14; 2 Chronicles 12;
Philippians 3
S – 2 Chronicles 12:8 They will, however, become subject to
him, so that they may learn the difference between serving me and serving the
kings of other lands.
O – The Lord spoke to the prophet Shemaiah and said Judah
would become subject to Shishak, king of Egypt.
A – Sometimes I wonder why I have had to go through what I
have in my life to get to where I am today.
It seems I spent the first 29 years of my life looking for and yearning
for love personified. I don’t recall ever
having anybody tell me back then who Jesus was and what He did for me by dying
on the cross. I never knew how much He
loved me and I believe I would have just jumped into His arms back then and
never looked back if I had had the opportunity.
But, now I am crazy in love with Him. I know what it is like to love and not have
that love returned, to serve and not be appreciated, to follow, only to get
stomped on. I was chasing after the
wrong lovers. But maybe because of what
I went through, I SO appreciate the love I experience now with Jesus. I certainly don’t take it for granted and I
know that He is the only One worthy of my utmost devotion.
P – Lord, I love You so much. I don’t know how You could possible use me to
show others the way to You and Your wonderfulness, but I ask that You do, so
that others would truly know how great Your love is and follow You into Your
kingdom to serve You forever!
