Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. Isaiah 43:18 NIV 

God leads us from the past and prepares us for the future. He reminds us He can do what we cannot. He is mighty and holy! He strengthens our faith to believe in the power of His greatness. 

The circumstances in life form powerful opportunities for God to transform us. They ready us to seek His guidance and become aware of how He will handle our days. They shape our thoughts and ready us to welcome Christ. And, they teach us what it means to be faithful.  

When we seek the guidance of God, we should pay attention to what’s happening in our lives. In order to do something for His glory, we must first recognize how it feels to be humbled and learn to totally trust. God will provide the way for us to receive Him. He will remind us how it feels to be grateful, while we’re held in the presence of His peace.  

Nothing is impossible for God! He will make a way in the wilderness and bring water to the dryness of our souls. He has designed our lives! We must remain faithful and never doubt His ability to guide. He will fill us with His greatness and help us embrace the gift of a grateful heart. And, He will help us remember who's in charge EVERY single day of our lives. 

Dear God, Sometimes we forget we are held by YOU. Your precious moments of purpose prepare us to trust. Help us recognize the power of Your greatness, so we will understand the depth of Your strength. Guide us EVERY day of our lives and remind us why we should honor You with of our praise. We will find reason to be grateful, as we welcome the presence of Your love and find our strength in YOU. Amen
