Day 28 & 29, March

God Will Brighten Your Day

He set himself to seek God... and as long as he sought (inquired of, yearned for) the Lord, God made him prosper 2 Chronicles 26:5

Jesus got up early in the morning, long before daylight, and went out to a deserted place, and prayed --- He got alone
Mark 1:35 Very early the next morning, long before daylight, Jesus got up and left the house. He went out of the town to a lonely place, where he prayed.

There were so many people who followed Jesus everywhere He went that He probably wouldn't have had any time alone if He hadn't gotten up really early.

If you aren't a morning person, the thought of getting up early may make you nervous. But you can decipher yourself what " early" means for you. Nine o'clock is early if you are used to staying in bed until noon. Even if you only get up fifteen minutes earlier than usual to have some time alone with God, you will still honor Him, and that time with Him, will make your whole day brighter.













Enjoy the Pursuit

Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is he who considers the weak and the poor; the Lord will deliver him in the time of evil and trouble. Psalm 41:1

Do you ever feel that no matter where you go, somebody pursues you and hunts you down? Does someone seem to need something every time you start doing what you set out to do? Someone needs a ride to school, or somebody forgets their lunch, and before you know it, half your day is wasted.

Jesus knows what it is like to be pursued, but H was never upset by it. As soon as He ministered to everyone in one place, He went to the next town to find more people who needed Him. He never said, " Leave me alone." Ask God to show you the needs of people through the eyes of Jesus today, and your days will never be wasted.
