SEEDS FOR HARVESTING 8/37
Psalm 116:162
"I rejoice in your word like one who has found a great treasure."
Do we open our bible
each morning as a duty,
because if we don't we will miss a blessing,
or does the reading of God's word
bring joy for us?
Do we expect to discover a ‘great treasure'
that will be revealed to us?
We ‘rejoice in your word'
only when we expect a ‘great treasure.'
A prospector spends a life time
looking for a nugget of gold.
For us, the treasure is in our hands
provided we prepare our minds
and hearts to discover it.
Sometimes we do not recognise it
but quite often
at the end of the day
it becomes real for us.
That's what Jesus meant
when he says to us
‘if you abide in my word.'
God's guidance is not just
at the beginning of a day,
but is with us all day,
morning, noon and night.
Bob Imms 6.10.13
