Wake up call

“But what happens when we live God’s way? He brings gifts into our lives…things like affection for one another, exuberance about life, serenity…a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people.” – Galatians 5: 22 - 23

SERENITY doesn’t always come with sleep – sometimes we need to be awake, spiritually alert! These days minds can be obsessed with threats of war, crime, politics, corruption or just trying to make ends meet, so we need to cultivate our own spiritual awareness of the “exuberance about life”; we need a godly world view. Christ slept in a boat being tossed in the storm. He then woke, calmed the storm and His fellow passengers. His same peace will help us face life’s turbulence. When we arise each day, we must also wake up spiritually! Beautiful days are not dependent just on the weather, but on God permeating the way we face the day.
