How Shall We Proceed?
Wednesday 28 December 2022
As Time Moves On, As Seasons Come to an End, As Canoeing Ended and the Snows Began, So On This Day What Comes to an End?
Psalms 42:12
Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my help and my God.
2 Corinthians 3:12
Since, then, we have such a hope, we act with great boldness,
Words of Grace For Today
Looking,
Looking where?
Looking back, forward, in depth, inward, to the stars?
In the in between time we look where it counts:
to God
for hope,
and love,
and life,
and purpose,
and direction, also for this day.
Though hope is based on nothing tangible, and while living based on nothing tangible is foolhardy,
nevertheless we proceed with boldness in everything we do,
for our hope is based on what is not tangible, but what is infallible, and the source of the only security available to any human in life: God’s Word.
So let the day bring what it will, we will hope
to respond with the same Grace God shows us each day.
And
that is a good ending to any year, day, moment, and even life, if that is what awaits us.
