Ecclesiastes 2:26 ... God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy to a man who is good in His sight; ...
While visiting a prisoner, he expressed a great joy, he was going home to a loving family, he was thankful he found Christ, and He was happy he would still be a prisoner for God. Wow, a man experienced real brokenness, trusted Jesus with all his heart and discovered freedom in prison. How can this be, I am so glad you asked?
The King of Glory is looking for that one who will be His, in any circumstance, 2 Chronicles 16:9 (NKJV) "For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him," the heart that will trust God in the pain and extreme difficulty of living is the one God will bless unconditionally.
How are you trusting Him today, it is evident in the wisdom, knowledge and joy you are experiencing right now? Is God the center of you're living, thinking and reactions to life's circumstances, He can be if you will trust Him with everything?
Heavenly Father, You alone deserve every attention we could possibly posses, let our thoughts, desires, and actions be for You. May nothing on, in or around us distract from the peace that You alone provide. May all our activity be to give You glory, for we are just prisoners of our God! Amen
