Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Buscamos tantas cosas pasajeras. Al obtenerlas, tenemos que tratar de preservarlas porque pronto no estarán. Dios nos prometió que tal como Él es eterno, lo son los que lo buscan y obedecen su voluntad. Evaluemos el uso de nuestro tiempo, nuestro dinero y nuestra energía para ver si buscamos lo eterno o lo pasajero. Tenemos que preguntarnos "¿incluso si vale la pena tenerlo, va a durar lo suficiente como para hacer la diferencia?"
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
So much of what we pursue is fleeting. Once we acquire it, we try to preserve it! Why? Because we know it will soon be gone. God has promised us that just as he is eternal and will live forever, so are those who pursue a relationship with him and are committed to his will. So, let's look at how we spend our time, money, and effort. Then, let's ask if what we are pursuing is really worth having. Now, let's ask one more important question: "Even if it is worth having, is it going to last long enough to make a difference?"
Mi oración
Padre Eterno, dame el valor de considerar lo que busco en mi vida. Quiero que sean cosas con significado. Quiero que mi vida tenga un impacto para el bien, gloficándote. No quiero perder tiempo en cosas que no importan y no perduran. Dame la sabiduría espiritual para seguir tu voluntad y encontrar tu vida en vez de buscar los valores de la sociedad. En el nombre de Jesús, Amén.
My Prayer...
Eternal Father, please give me the courage to be honest about what I am pursuing with my life. I want it to count for your cause. I want to make a difference for good. Some of that desire, I confess, is self-serving. However, dear Father, I truly want to have a life that impacts others for good and brings you honor. I don't want to waste my time chasing after things that won't last or matter. Please give me the spiritual wisdom to follow your will and find your life rather than pursue my culture's vain values. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
