“Small surrenders make up a stained glass mosaic.” — unknown
As you read this, on this day (Sunday), what comes to mind for you?
There are many possible directions and interpretations.
It reminds me, at first glance, the daily surrender necessary to overcome addiction.
One day at a time.
A small surrender to desire.
And sometimes in one day, there are many small surrenders.
And then tomorrow, begin again.
Repeat until death.
Father I have sinned. In my thoughts and in my words. In what I done and what I have failed to do.
Sound familiar?
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall be shown mercy.
Do you think about this casually? Relentlessly?
What if you did?
Do you listen to music? I mean, all the time? Or do you listen to talk radio? Perhaps you don’t listen to radio at all.
It really makes no difference what we do.
Until.
Until we take an inventory of our spirit.
Huh?
At any given moment, if you were put on the spot and forced to give an honest answer, could you immediately say, “I’m blessed beyond measure.”?
Could you? And we’re not talking some fake, or politically correct, “Of course!”
One of my secrets? Listening to Z88.3 every single day. The Z, as we call it here in Central Florida, plays contemporary Christian Music that is, Safe For The Little Ears.
If you believe it is, it is.
But who’s going to make you believe it?
Human’s get hungry several times each day. No brainer, right?
We are always needing to feed ourselves.
Enter the rat race and insanely busy schedules. Enter fast food establishments. Enter television.
The other day I saw a Burger King commercial, touting the toys in the kid’s meal packages.
The kids commented on the furry animal toys which are the current give-away.
“So real, it’s almost, real.”
Unexplainably, I immediately thought about God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit – about Faith.
So real, it’s almost, real.
