God's Word of the Day

Story of the Day
I looked around on this walk I was taking. I could see in creation a loving God. As the trees were dropping the pine cones, I noticed the intricate detail in each one. No wonder my friend had asked me to collect a few pine cones for her. She was going to use God's work of art in her work of art. She always made a centerpiece for the table for use on Thanksgiving Day. The love of God present in pine cones created by God and recreated by my friend. God would be glorified in and through the careful work of my friend as she took the time to make something beautiful. As I walked along, I thought about how God was reforming and transforming my heart from within. How God was taking something He created and forming a centerpiece of love. I was somewhat like those pine cones. My heart was not cast aside due to sin. My heart was picked up off of the ground and being used by God. Love great and everlasting at work from within. Thanks be to God!

Prayer of the Day
Lord, you are my everlasting rock. I will trust in You. I love You with all my heart, soul and might. You love endures forever. Now reform and transform my heart from within. Make me Your desire. Glorify Yourself in and through me this day. ---Amen
