Walk the Word - His Word for my day!
Today's Bible verse: "God gave Solomon . . . largeness of heart,
even as the sand that is on the sea
shore (1 Kings 4:29 KJV)."
"Caution: Grit and Grime on Sandy Shore!"
by Peggie C. Bohanon, Writer and Webmaster of Peggie's Place!
Sand is wonderful--when its cool, glistening softness squishes between your toes; where kids build sand castles, search for sea shells, and bury each other in mounds of more sand; where it's just "THE" place to be on whatever shoreline coast where you live! But sometimes it gets HOT...sometimes it gets in your eyes...sometimes it gets mixed up with the suntan oil you've just put on your face...and sometimes it grits and grimes everywhere it's not supposed to grit and grime--and it's not fun!
Isn't life like that? Little bits of irritation that clog up the wheels of our fast-paced living, our people-blended families and our stress-driven work worlds. That's the time to look up for I know a SON in whose face we can look directly; we can bathe in His love; we can know His peace.....for HIS Sonshine still shines, His presence is STILL there, even on the hot sands of our lives. He's there watching, loving, helping...and we're going to make it--for HE's all we really need--even in the sand!
Today's prayer: "Lord, when earth's river is overflowing - when the sand is hot, the rocks are jagged, the wind is cold, let me KNOW the SONshine of YOUR love. For You are in the midst of all that I do--you love, watch, help, protect, provide--better than the earthly sun could ever do. You're all I need for every sand storm, wind storm, and rocky place where I stand. Enlarge my heart to feel the REAL Sonshine of Your love this day and to KNOW, by Your help and grace, I AM going to make it! In Jesus' Name, Amen.
