Manna for Your Morning

Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, — Acts 3:19 (NKJV) In the presence of the Lord we are refreshed, revived and restored. As we surrender our will and flow with the Spirit of the Lord that dwells within us, we are strengthened and His power enables us to accomplish all that He designed for us. The Lord rebuilds that which is broken and makes us into brand new creations. Every morning, He pours out new mercies and compassions on us. So we have a fresh start each day. As we continually abide in His Presence, we are refreshed and our lives are changed from ordinary to extraordinary.

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.  — Psalm 139:13-14 (NIV) You are among God's wonderful creations. He chose you for Himself, in Christ, before the creation of the world (Ephesians 1:4). You are a very special person. God knit you together in your mother's womb, with a unique set of gifts, talents and abilities. Only you can fulfill your God-given purpose. He has destined you for greatness and for His glory to be shown. Praise the LORD!

But now, O LORD,  You are our Father;  We are the clay, and You our potter;  And all we are the work of Your hand.  Isaiah 64:8 (NKJV) Like clay in the hand of the potter, so are we in the hand of our heavenly Father. May we be sensitive to the touch of our Maker's hand as He gently shapes us and molds us into beautiful creations. Let us not be stubborn and try to go against God's design. Be pliable in the hands of our Master as He fashions you into a unique masterpiece with His very own signature.
