DISCERNING GOD’S INCREDIBLE GREATNESS
A poem and essay by ILMA
When was the last time you were awed by God’s creation?
Isn’t it amazing how a mother blooms as she goes through conception?
Have you meditated on how the Spirit directs you to Christ?
What silent miracles has God done that changed your life?
Pray that you will understand God’s incredible greatness
Soak in his love and learn his amazing mercy and faithfulness
If you continue to believe in God’s power, he will give you wisdom
It is by faith that you will be experience peace, joy and freedom.

Social media, material things, relationships can veer us away from God. The enemy does his best to steal our time, joy and peace so that we will not experience the life God wants us to have. I sometimes still have trouble keeping focused on Jesus. There is always something or someone that Satan uses to keep us tempted or eventually fall into sin. There are times that in my conversations with God, I find my thoughts going all over the place. The old self can get the better of me and win in getting my attention away from the Lord. The bible tells us to pray that we will have discernment of God’s incredible greatness.
PRAYER
Lord, keep me always focused on you.
REFLECTION
What do you think is the benefit of focusing on God’s greatness?
