Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind. – Romans 12:2
Dear God, thank You that You work everything out for
good. Thank You that our spiritual selves aren’t strapped to this world. What I
think and feel about You – for sure, this world is not my home. Thank You for
the option. Thank You for freedom and breath. Thank you for hope and renewed
chances. Thank You that anything is possible with You. Thank You for never
leaving me high and dry. Thank You for being the perfect supplier and equipper
and that life is more than what this world is so focused on. Thank You I don’t
need to compete and keep up with the Joneses here. What is really desirous is
the beauty You bring into my life. Your abundant grace, mercy, love and joy
that all the treasures of this world can not bring. For Your beautiful
character and how it affects me. Your generosity in every way. What in the
world satisfies like You? Wealth? Fame? Position? Superficial pleasures? No
matter what (or how much) I seem to have that’s worldly, nothing is more
comforting or more fulfilling that what I receive from You, Lord. You have a
way of talking to me and communicating with me that settles me down and gives
me hope, energy, peace and power. And it feels more complete and satisfying
than what the world offers. It’s a rather unexplainable thing. Just as You are
too big and awesome to capture into human words, this too can not be explained.
It’s a spirit thing and we all have spirit. Praise You, Lord, that I am in this
world, and not of it. I belong to You. Amen.
