So
I am in my office with all these thoughts going on in my head and I pick up my
daily devotion calendar that is displayed on my desk just to change the date.
Let me remind you I have had this calendar for years! Maybe 13 plus years. But
I pick it up to read what March 21 says and this scripture has wreaked my day
like literally wreak my day. Tore up my brokenness, rip my doubt, and breathe
life into me. Isaiah 54:10 NIV: "Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be
removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of
peace be removed,” says the LORD, who has
compassion on you."
I know you saying how could that one scripture wreak you like
that? Well when you are in a place where you don't know if Daddy is doing something for you and feel like
things are going silent.
You wonder Daddy do you still love me? I mean to feel like Daddy
are you really bothered by the things that I am bothered by or am I just
praying empty prayers? Well this scripture just ripped those
thoughts and more out my head. In one reading my heart was change and I had an
awaking moment of who Daddy is. Daddy is Unbothered. That means that there is
nothing I can do, this world can give, bill collectors can say, my finances can
show that moves Daddy away from his covenant of peace. Ok, let me preach to
myself. There is no amount of debt, issues, reports, stress, fear, anxiety, disappointment,
feeling, or emotion that can shake Daddy’s love, compassion, or peace for me
and towards me. Do you understand that? Daddy is so unbothered about what we
are bothered about. He does not care how much the world says we have failed.
Whether it be with goals we have set, debt we tried to cancel, or the lack of
funds in our bank account. Daddy is unbothered with our strategies, but he is
bothered that we have not sought out his peace and love, and that we have
become so overwhelm with the world that we have allowed mountains and hills to
block us from his presence.
Prayer: Daddy help us to become
unbothered by the things of this world, our life issues, and every strategy that
we have created to get us out of whatever we have created for ourselves. Daddy
help us become bothered by your love, peace, presence, word, and will for our
lives. Help us become bothered by your supplication, provision, and strategy.
Help us become bothered with being bothered in you. Bothered by your voice….Bothered
by your assignments for our lives…Bothered by your love, healing, and just you
Daddy. In Jesus Name! AMEN
