TO THIS PLACE
Today's reading: Deuteronomy 26-27

"So the Lord brought us out of Egypt with amazing power, overwhelming terror, and miraculous signs and wonders. He brought us to this place..." Deuteronomy 26:8-9 NLT

I don't know what the story of your faith walk entails, but it's brought you to this place.

Maybe it's been smooth sailing...great!

Maybe it's been a love story of God seeking you out for years before you said 'Yes'...how romantic!

Maybe it's been based upon the script from a made-for-TV-movie where the hero saves the down-and out-kid from the gutter...wonderful!

Maybe it's been a tumultuous relationship, with you being fickle, unsure and immature as to what you thought you wanted or needed or deserved from God...very common!

No matter the story line, it all begins with the power of salvation, follows the pattern of miraculous opportunities for growth and development and ends with where you are right now, today.

Every page of every chapter of your story with God has been written for a reason. Every up and down, every happy moment and sad occurrence, every good day and every long, dark night--all for His glory and your growth.

He has brought you to this place...today.

What will you do with the gift?
