Thinking About God
Dear Friend,
I hope you have experimented with new thinking about God. If not, I would like to suggest a three-step devotional moment:
Step One: Find a quiet spot. Sit calmly for several minutes. Then introduce yourself to God and ask for His loving presence.
Step Two: Offer thanksgiving to God for His love, forgiveness and grace. Thank Him for the glory and power of His good work in the world.
Step Three: Offer your life to God as an expression of His grace. Tell the Lord you are willing to be His partner in treating the people around you better than they deserve.
Now, proceed through your day and look for expressions of God’s special concern for you. Also, look for moments in which the grace of God can flow through your life and help someone around you. Perhaps you might follow the psalmist, and throughout the day, whisper to yourself:
“O give thanks to the Lord for He is good. His loving kindness lasts forever.”
Psalm 107:1
