Do we take God's blessings for granted? I probably do! "Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance?" Romans 2:4 ESV Do I take another day for granted? I kind of assume that tomorrow is another day. When I consider that apart from God, I take on the role of his enemy. In reality, if I saw God for who he really is, I'd be scared to death. God's glory and his magnificence is disguised and cloaked in our world because if we saw him for what he really is, we would be freaked out. God is giving us the chance to turn to him. Every day is a day he has given us to choose him over any other path. He even came and died to show us the way. And he's giving us time, grace, and mercy so we can make the choice. Everything is in our favor. We just don't need to blow it! So what can we do today? Well, let's take seriously the time we have? Who might God want us to talk to today? Who can we pray for? Who can we help? Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you and point you in the direction he wants you to go. Find someone to serve. Give a coffee, send a text, make a call. God has you right where you are so you can choose to follow him. Will you? Why not send someone a text today that you haven't communicated with in months. Tell them you were thinking about them and ask how they're doing? Listen and let God tell you what to do next. Appreciate them today because Jesus appreciates you and died for you. Even when we give a cup of cold water because we follow Jesus, it matters. See Matthew 10:42 Thanks for being a marketplace minister. What you do because you follow Jesus matters, forever! Don't forget it.
