4.28.18 – John
Wesley said, “I do not have time to be in a hurry.” Most of us make the
mistake of thinking that we are doing the most business when we are busy but
God has much to say about “standing still.” Most of us need to hit the pause
button in our lives and eliminate enough nonessentials to make time to “…see
the salvation of the Lord!” When we wait upon the Lord we “…will renew our
strength.” S. E. ‘Trail
My prayer for you today is for you to
eliminate the non-essentials so you can focus on the non-negotiables!
1 Kings 19:11 And
he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the
LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in
pieces the rocks before the LORD; but
the LORD was not in the wind:
and after the wind an earthquake; but
the LORD was not in the
earthquake 12 And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
KJV
“A little boy was overheard talking to
himself as he strutted through the backyard, wearing his baseball cap and
toting a ball and bat: “I’m the greatest hitter in the world,” he announced. Then,
he tossed the ball into the air, swung at it, and missed. “Strike One!” he
yelled. Undaunted, he picked up the ball and said again, “I’m the greatest
hitter in the world!” He tossed the ball into the air. When it came down he
swung again and missed. “Strike Two!” he cried. The boy then paused a moment to
examine his bat and ball carefully. He spit on his hands and rubbed them
together. He straightened his cap and said once more, “I’m the greatest hitter
in the world!” Again he tossed the ball up in the air and swung at it. He
missed. “Strike Three!” “Wow!” he exclaimed. “I’m the greatest pitcher in the world.”
