Devotions While
we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which
are not seen. For the things, which are, seen are temporary, but the
things, which are not seen, are eternal.
The
world is certainly a busy place, which glitters with an appeal that
attracts our attention and changes our focus from what is real and
eternal to what will fade away. There is more to this life than the
pleasures we seek. We don’t see reality we see the things and
circumstance that surrounds us. Following God is choosing to follow
what’s real and lasting. There is nothing in this world that can
begin to compare with the eternal gifts and pleasures that God desires
for our lives. Words can’t express the feeling of being in the
presence of Almighty God, living in the security of His love, and
receiving as heirs the benefits of His Kingdom. We can’t allow our
focus to be swayed in exchange for temporary pleasure. Becoming
absorbed with the world will lead us away from the lasting treasures
that God desires to give. Prayer
God
you are real, your never-ending love gives us security, and in your
presence we find a joy and peace that are beyond belief. There is
nothing in this world worth exchanging for the gifts we have received
from your hand. Forgive us when we the world absorbs our attention and
we find ourselves getting caught up in the pleasures that fade away.
You have placed us on this path; help us today to remain focused on
our goal. In Jesus name, Amen.
