May 28 , 2010 - Devotional: I'ts Not About Me

"I take back everything I said, and I sit in dust and ashes to show my repentance."
(Job 42:5)
(Read Job 42:1-5)

IT'S NOT ABOUT ME

They give us the forecast yet rarely are they right or in control of it. No matter my desire, the sun continues to rise every day in the east, night falls daily.

The seasons change, the leaves come and go the wind blows where it wishes, the rain and snow falls whenever and whereever it chooses.

The wonder of the world cannot honestly be captured in pictures, it is spectacular when viewed with the naked eye but never fully appreciated.

The immensity and complexity of the world should overwhelm us yet in my own little world, the box I've created, I think it's all about me until God reminds me that He created me for His glory, that I need to take my eyes off of me and look to the One who formed me, who predestined me, who designed me for the mission in life to share His love and hope.

And so may the inward man change yet again to show an outward expression of the Loving Lord God .

Rejoice in the Lord Always!

Dario Ferko
