“Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, you righteous: and shout for joy, all you that are upright in heart” (Psalm 32:11).
I recently put the newspaper that I had been reading back on the stand. It was not with an attitude of smugness. It certainly wasn’t with an attitude of feeling better or superior to another. In that edition I had read of several situations. One was a public intoxication, another was a driving-under-the-influence, another was of several arrests at a bar fight. On and on the stories went. Then it struck me. Were it not for the grace of God, one of these stories could easily have been written about me. I am so glad that the Lord Jesus is still working in my life. It brought rejoicing and gladness to me. How about you?
For today: Aren’t you glad that the Lord is in charge of your life? How good He is to us indeed.
