Worship Devotional: Seek Direction




They that wait upon the Lord
Will renew their strength.
(Isaiah 40:31)

When the tempest shall rare it's ugly head, woe to the tree that has not sucked up fresh sap and grasped the rock with many inter-twisted roots. Dear worshiper, start the New Year guiding your roots deep. Feed fat for the days ahead, and strengthen your hold on The Anchor - against the winds to come. We do not know what wind type will blow, for Uncertainty rules the day and at night thieves roam while Men sleep. This we know, that our certainty and hope is in He who has called us, and faithful He is. 

The road to the top seems long and frightening. We do not know for sure: what turns to take, the routes to avoid, how to maneuver the dangerous bends so we don't fall off the cliff. Blessed and favoured is He who will seek the face of the Father, and stay in tune with the voice of the Spirit. Such soul finds rest in the promise that: "all things (good and bad) work together for the good of them that love the Lord,  and are called according to His purpose.
