Ahead
February 21-22
Leaving the home of my neighbor yesterday after washing the last dish from
the funeral luncheon, I found myself thinking...what is ahead for her. Webster would use the definition:
in, into, or for the future for that word use.
The definition: in or toward a more advantageous position would fit for how we should live in a way which helps others get ahead in their spiritual journey with the Lord.
Jesus has gone ahead of us preparing a place, a home in heaven for those who believe; would fit with a third definition of this word: at or to an earlier time : in advance.
Picking up the God Calling devotional book for today it was no surprise to see the word ahead in the second sentence, since that is where the Lord had me. Be blessed by this writing:
"The way is plain. You do not need to see far ahead. Just one step at a time with Me. The same light to guide you as the Hosts of Heaven know-the Son of Righteousness Himself. Only self can cast a shadow on the way.Be more afraid of Spirit un-rest, of soul-disturbance, of any ruffling of the Spirit, than of earthquake, or fire or any outside forces. When you feel the absolute calm has been broken-away alone with Me until your heart sings, and all is strong and calm."
Let's Pray: Lord, Your omniscience allows You to know all that is ahead! We simply have to remember who is The Head! May the beat of our hearts be one with You today and our Spirits firmly connected to You trusting You to lead the way whatever is ahead! In Jesus Name, Amen
