Be Ready

www.bible.com/reading-plans/26293/day/9

Like Joseph, when we are in a period of waiting, it seems to be long and tedious. But in an instant, God can change things and we have to be ready for the change. That change may not be exactly what we were expecting, but it is always exactly what God planned for us, so we have to be ready to accept and move. Joseph didn’t continue to languish in prison after the Pharoah sent for him. He cleaned himself up and went before Pharoah. I can’t imagine he want in with an attitude of “What took you so long?” Rather, he, as we should be, was grateful to be out of the period of waiting and expectantly hopeful of what God was going to do next.

Are You Ready?

Are you always ready to tell people about the Jesus who lives inside you, the One who gives you life and hope and love? The One who changes you from the inside out? God’s Word tells us to always be ready. We should always have a testimony to give of God’s grace and goodness and mercy in our lives. God’s mercy is new every day and Jesus is living inside of us, so our testimony should be a living, changing witness to God’s working in us daily.

Just a side note to my faithful readers: I am going to Maryland to visit family for birthdays for a son and a granddaughter. I’m not sure that I will have time to post during this trip but I will hold you in my heart until I return.

Have a blessed and wonderful day! Don’t let anyone steal your joy…it is a gift from God! Now, go out and be a blessing! ♥️🙏🏻♥️
