DAILY?READINGS: 2 Chronicles 33; Daniel 1; 1 John 3

 

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet. Jeremiah 1:5.

For we are… created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:10

 

These verses remind us that God has a beautiful plan for our lives, laid down long before we were born. However it requires repentance of sin, and faith in Christ, in order to start fitting into that marvelous plan. If this is followed by a daily yielding of ourselves to His will (Rom. 6:13), we will indeed lead lives of fulfilment and joy, whatever our circumstances might be. —David Croudace

 

 

God holds the key of all unknown, and I am glad;
If other hands should hold the key, or if He trusted it to me, I would be sad.—Joseph Parker
