617 The Day You Woke Up To

Who just plain old needs today to be a good day? Who needs something to go right? Who needs a little breakthrough, a turn of the tides, a bit of progress where there has been nothing but struggle? Who needs everyone to just be nice today dang it? Don’t be afraid to admit that’s you. Our almighty God responds to need. Who wants to nail life today? Who wants to show up and do this thing right? Who wants to move forward now? I believe you just woke up to that kind of day. The kind of day where you can totally slay this. The kind of day where you can do what you need to do and do it darn well. The kind of day where you put on real britches with a zipper (uhmmmm have you checked to see if they still fit after the past 3 months). The kind of day where you give it your best shot, and you go to bed with that good tired feeling of accomplishment without any major quarrels or melt downs. I believe today is a Psalm 42:8 kinda day for you “But each day the Lord pours his unfailing love upon me.” Now line up and receive that unfailing love he wants to pour on you. See God doesn’t want to sprinkle his love on you. He’s not just throwing it up in the air, hoping a bit falls on you, no no no, he wants to pour it on you. For someone to pour something on you, you need to be close and you need to be still for a moment. That’s what we’re here to do today. A moment of closeness to our God. We are gathering here at his feet to receive his blessing. We are stopping everything else in our busy lives and we are getting real still in this moment. God, pour out your unfailing love on your girls today. As you bow in reverence at this moment, may you feel his love pour over you. May you know his love is unfailing. It will never fail you. Ever. His love will follow you into the pit with lions, it will go before you on the mountain climb. His love will calm you on the stormy seas, it will provide for you in the desert, and it will fight for you in the battle. Psalm 36: 5 &6 “Your unfailing love, O LORD, is as vast as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the ocean depths.” This is the kind of love we receive from our Creator today. An unfailing love. A love that is handcrafted to meet your every need. A love that is faithful, righteous and just. A love that covers any area of lack or shortcoming and makes you MORE than enough. A love that changes everything. This is the love God is offering you today. He’s ready to pour it out on you today as you come close to him in this moment of stillness. We receive. We are grateful. May nothing separate you from Him today. I don’t know what you have going on today, but I bet there will be a pull of either busyness or a pull of boredom. May neither of these separate you from God today. As you come in close to him this morning, may you remain close to him throughout this day. May you stand strong in him today. May he anchor you and hold you steady. When the world wants to toss you around and when circumstances want to get you all stirred up, may you be strong and steady in him. May your eyes be fixed on Jesus today. May you see him in everything and everyone. May you be aware of his presence and his power. It’s all around you this morning. It’s being poured out on you at this moment. Get you some girl. Don’t dismiss yourself from this goodness. Get all up in there as God is pouring out his unfailing love this morning. There’s enough for everyone and you don’t have to sit it out! You’re included in this offering as God pours out his love that NEVER fails. Psalm 30:5 says “Joy comes in the morning.” Ahhhh, don’t you realize that’s why the enemy fights so hard to convince you mornings suck … bec...
