Devotion for Thursday, January 21, 2021
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them” (Ephesians 2:10).
You have been created. There is a Creator and You are the product of His hands. Come into the presence of Your maker and live as one who trusts in the Creator of all things. He knows why He is doing what He is doing. He knows where all of this will lead. With great purpose He has laid out the foundation of creation so that you might have the opportunity to always abide with Him.
Lord, the mystery of this universe is deep. I see many things and there are many more things that I do not see. Help me, I pray, to step out in faith and live trusting You who has created all things. Guide me away from just wanting to know in order to learn to trust You with the things I cannot know. Guide me by faith to live into the life You are creating in me through the grace You have given me.
Lord Jesus, God in the flesh, You have come so that all who believe may have life and have it abundantly. Lead me this day in the truth of the grace You give so that I may abide in You and learn from You as You teach me. Help me through the obstacles that will get in the way so that I may even learn from them how to live this new life You have given me. Teach me to abide in You now and forever. Amen.
