As I was getting ready for this 21 days I was reading in Acts the 4th chapter about the early church. The early church was filled with excitement as they were experiencing what it was like to be followers of Christ without Him there for the first time. I'm sure they were a bit scared and wondering often what Jesus would do if He were there. They were also emboldened by those who would try to get them to stop sharing their faith and healing in Jesus name. It must have been a very exciting time of learning, trial, error, and power.
Wouldn't it be awesome to approach life and the Kingdom of God with such newness and freshness as they did? I believe Jesus wants us to approach everyday with this thought in mind, what would Jesus do if He were right here - right now? WWJD - it kind of came and went as a Fad a few years ago but the principle of the message is still powerful. It should cause us to approach everyday with a sense of wonder and excitement at the mere thought of what God may have prepared in advance for us to do today!
How about we start tomorrow morning together praying this one thought - Jesus, what would you have me do today? I will be available to whatever it is - lead me wherever you need me.
That's kind of catchy isn't it? Lead me wherever you need me! He has something great for you today. Don't worry or think about the food - let's keep our thoughts and minds on Christ who for the joy set before Him endured the cross and its shame for us!
Have a great God-filled day today!
