A
cup of coffee
To
start your day.
The
birds are singing.
Oh,
that coffee smells great!
Two
more minutes
And
your waffles are done.
Now
for some quiet time with your Lord
Before
you are joined by everyone.
This
time is so precious—
You
could never give it up.
For
this is the time of day
When
the Lord fills your cup.
“Heavenly
Father, thank You for the quiet times when it is just You and me.
I need You to quiet me and refresh me in Your
Word--
and by just being in Your presence every day.
When
I don’t take that time, I wilt.
You
have loved me with an everlasting love.
You
love the whole world so much that You sent Your only Son, Jesus Christ, to
earth so He would die in our place.
We
all deserve to die eternally because of our sin—but You have made a way for us
to live eternally, be free from the bondage of sin and death, and know You in a
very personal and close way through the resurrection of Jesus from the dead.
You
want us to know how deep Your love is for us.
It is greater than any other thing.
Father,
show us Your love today, I ask, in Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
What
is my cup of SonShine for today?
To
slow down and be with my Lord—
And
to seek to know how deep His love is for me.
I don’t
want to live another minute not living in the knowledge of the depth of His
love for me (Ephesians 3:17-19).
“Father,
reveal to me today how deep Your love is for me, I pray.
In
Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
Ephesians
3:17-19 (NKJV)
“That
Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and
grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is
the width and length and depth and height—to know the love
of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all
the fullness of God.”
