Daily Devotions

Like a child being scolded for grabbing a cookie before dinner, we often do not associate rules with joy. When we read about God’s laws in the Bible, what we tend to focus on is the restriction. You may even ask yourself how the Mosaic law–full of its sacrifices and commandments–can bring life?

In the Parable of the Talents, the servants were entrusted with their master’s property for the duration of his journey. He gave different amounts to each, but all three were given something. The two that used what they were given to create something more were praised. The one who simply hid away the resources was chastised for not understanding who the master was, and for not working to make more out of what he had been given.

There are many times in my daily life that I encounter people that think they have all the answers. Sometimes they are right. Often they are wrong. And frequently, they argue against God’s wisdom because they are waiting for “new knowledge” or a “special revelation” that will make God real to them.

Someone recently asked me an honest question about my grief over losing my daughter to heart disease. She asked if I could go back and were I to have a choice about whether or not to be a mom to a child with special needs, would I choose to bypass all the heartache? I acknowledged that there are many things that I would do differently, but having my daughter would not be something I’d change. So, it made me wonder about how we, as believers, see our hardships in this life.

There is a difference between saying the right things and living them. We all know of church leaders, politicians, and celebrities that have said things to the approval of their followers, only to be later exposed as hypocrites. We are reminded in 1 John, that as part of the body of Christ, we are to love our brothers not only in word, but in action.

When we think of a pure heart that loves God, we do not speak of outward perfection or religious performance. We need to think of something far deeper that cannot be measured through ritual observance, checklists, or appearances. The purity of heart described in Matthew 5:8 is a life that seeks to love God not only with our emotions, but with our minds and actions.

Family caregiving is full of moments that don’t allow time to search and study the Bible for guidance or comfort. Decisions are required quickly. Emotions are running  high. Fatigue has settled in deep. And in these moments, what we have already stored in our hearts is what will guide us and keep us from error.

We often try to change ourselves from the outside in. We adjust habits, modify behavior, and manage our appearance.  We set goals and make resolutions. God is concerned with something deeper. He is waiting for us to choose a relationship with him–one where sin is cut away to enable us to love him more.
