Our Good Friday and Easter Sunday services were incredible times of worship and then today felt so blah....back to data entry and corresponding with potential international students, starting the tedious, GREAT CLOSET CLEAN-OUT with all the girls, spending way too much time at Meijer looking for Worcestershire sauce, and finding out some disappointing news. Every day is so different in our journey....right?!
It felt like I was in His courts over the weekend and then I took leave to my normal life...."ELSEWHERE" but, that isn't true. My devotional today was on the topic of standing on the solid rock and I was reminded that, apart from Him, everything else is like sinking sand. Sometimes I follow my emotions into the sinking sand, but I want faith that is rock solid... not based on feelings or circumstances. That does take effort for me and discipline to pray and study the Word even when the feelings or motivations are not strong....today I was tempted to think I could coast on what I experienced over the weekend. BUT....imagine how much real life and purpose we have the potential to pack into our days if we are intentional to enter His courts every day?! WOW! What we celebrated at Easter is true every day and, because of Christ, we have boundless access to the courts of the Lord.
