Awaken to God’s Love
Lord, You are my God, my savior, my all. Deserving nothing and having nothing but myself to offer, I humbly come before you asking only to be awakened to your loving kindness this day.
Awaken to God’s love with this commitment to action:

Embrace The Power Of The Cross
Today I will finally “get it” that the cross is the gateway to Christ, which is the gateway to God, which is the gateway to eternal companionship with our Maker. The gateway was not Christ’s miracles, not His words, nor His life prior to the cross.
Carry this thought with you thoughout your day
Is Today Your Third Day?
It’s the third day: Christ has been crucified, along with misguided beliefs in how the Messiah’s kingdom will arrive, and the resurrection has not been observed.
What have I been hoping or trusting God would do? Is today “my third day” and has God still not done what I expected, begged or prayed for? Am I then justified to reject God? (Inspired by Oswald Chambers “Spiritual Dejection.”)
There are “third days” in every life, the time between shattered expectations and joyful newness. These may be moments, years, or even decades. But joyful newness does come on the wings of faith and prayer in the form of a blessing, a mercy, or grace—perhaps in a form or manner that could not possibly be anticipated.
The disciples’ third day came as prophesied and as Christ promised. They and the world were forever changed. And so we will be when our third day arrives. And it will.
Luke 24:21
“…but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel. And what is more, it is the third day since all this took place.”
