Take
care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading
you to fall away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long
as it is called "today," that none of you may be hardened by the
deceitfulness of sin. For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold
our original confidence firm to the end.
Hebrews 3:12-14
Thoughts on Today's
Verse...
When
life becomes wearisome, it is for a good reason. It may be pride, anger, sorrow,
disillusionment, something negative that we watch or read, or maybe stress
caused by differences with those we love, work with, or maybe even worship.
Whatever
the cause, God knows our frailties of
mind, body, and soul. He can see when we are out of alignment with Him and His
way. If we recognize the need ourselves, when we are rubbing up against the
brakes in some manner, and seek Him to be realigned, Jesus will fix us up and
put us straight.
Then,
even if our circumstances stay the same, Jesus in us will change our
perspective, our resolve, our willingness, and our ability to overcome, so that
we can continue on the Way, safe in Him, wherever that leads, up hill or down
dale.
