DAILY

When we pray The Lord's prayer..we ask Him to give us our DAILY bread...that would mean that we expect something daily from our Lord. Have you ever thought what He expects from us...those thoughts are with me this morning so that is what I choose to write about.

Daily, He expects us to acknowledge Him. That would mean to be aware of His presence in our lives and to thank Him for all he has done for us. Pray daily.

Daily, He wants us to get to know Him better. That would involve reading a great Book that was meant for each and every one of us...I refer to it as A Divine Guide Book..that would be The Holy Bible..It is probably the most available book to us..but the least read by many of us!

Daily, He wants us to show compassion and kindness to our fellow man....We all know someone that could stand a good word, a smile or a hug....be the one to provide one or all of those to him or her!

Daily, He would ask that we pick up our cross, as He did...not an easy task..and often the burden is far from being light...but, when we think about it..If He could carry all of us..we can handle our share!

Daily, We need to tell Him that we love Him...He loves us unconditionally. We need to show Him that kind of love...and the same for our brothers and sisters.

Daily, We need to humble ourselves..admit that we often fail...but be willing to accept His grace and forgiveness...It is by grace that we are saved..not by anything we do...We don't impress God..He knows we all fall short of what we should be..but he loves us anyway.

Daily..when we see someone less fortunate than ourselves..we need to pray for them and not judge them...and think to ourselves..."There, but for God's grace, go I."..that little phrase was meant to humble us.

There are many things we can do daily to show others that, even in our human condition, we can seek holiness...we can do our best to be the Christians that we profess to be. I am sure many of you can think of a lot more that could be said here. My purpose in writing this was to remind everyone that our Christian walk and our relationship with the Lord is a DAILY thing..not just a Sunday thing...don't isolate God in a building and sing and dance one day of the week...think about Him daily! He is thinking about us every day!
