Reflecting on Clarity to God’s Ways
Saturday is a day to reflect on all that God has been speaking to you this week, and how it will affect your life going forward.
From those of us on the Tree Church Daily team, we hope that you have had an amazing week in your time with God! We pray that you were challenged and encouraged by God’s word and His presence in your daily life.
Today, we want you to do something simple yet important. We want you to take time to write in a notebook, journal, or record a voice memo in your phone answering the prompts below. This does not need to be profound, poetic, or polished. It is a record for you to visit later to see and remember all that God is doing in your life. Journaling is a way to remind you of what God is speaking to you. Speaking something out loud or writing it down makes what we are thinking tangible, and makes us accountable to it. If God has challenged you or called you to do something specific this past week, making it tangible makes it real. So don’t skip today…today is about faith building, and that is what we pray happens for you.
Before you get started though, let’s pray together:
God, thank You so much for caring enough about me to involve Yourself in all of the details of my life. Because of Your Holy Spirit, I am able to have access to You all of the time and this truth brings me such peace. Lord, I pray that I will often be reminded of the goodness of Your love and grace in my life. As I take time now to reflect on these things, allow Your Holy Spirit to speak to me and reveal the things You want me to receive from this time with You. I love You, Lord! Amen.
Here are today’s prompts for you to process through in your written or voice journal:
First, focus on God’s promises to you. Because of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, God no longer dwells in a temple, but in us as believers! Take some time to thank God for the awesome gift of His presence and the accompanying peace He promises in all situations.
Second, focus on your current reality. We have complete access to God because His Holy Spirit lives within us. How does this affect your everyday life? How should it?
Lastly, focus on a step you know God is challenging you to. Because God dwells in His people, we are now temples of His Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 3:17 says that God's temple is holy and that we are that temple! Take a moment to create a list of ways you can care for yourself as a temple of the Living God.
