ENOUGH STRENGTH
Today's reading: 1 Kings 19-22
"So he got up and ate and drank, and the food gave him enough strength to travel forty days and forty nights to Mount Sinai, the mountain of God." 1 Kings 19:8 NLT
Would you use your last ounce of strength to get into God's presence?
Your last bit of 'oomph'?
Your final breath?
How determined are we, as believers, to be in the presence of our Lord?
We spend our energy and resources on everything else.
We wear ourselves out working...
We exhaust ourselves with entertainment...
We tire ourselves out socially...
We lose sleep updating ourselves on social media...
Are we as willing to sacrifice in order to meet with our Creator, our Redeemer, our Friend?
I'm going to spend some time looking over my calendar, my planner and the widget on my phone that tracks where I spend my time--and then compare it to how much of my strength I've dedicated to getting to the 'mountain of God'. Dare to join me?
