Chasing the Rabbit


Thoughts for the Day, April 22, 2020

My grandmother moved in with my parents the year before I got married. Our  rooms were next to each other and I could always tell when her little feet hit the floor in the morning. She would bolt into the day like a greyhound suddenly released at the dog track.  When she woke up it was  full throttle ahead. I feel that I am a lot like her many mornings—up and off to chase the rabbit. 

But I know my day works better when instead of charging into it, I rest in God’s presence allowing Him to take care of my life. Things go so much smoother when we walk purposefully with God, letting Him direct our course one step at a time.  Today, let’s start the morning in His word,  offering  prayers of thanksgiving  as we rest in His presence and let Him take control of our day.

Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. Colossians 4:2.
