Spiritual Driving

I start every morning with coffee with God through daily devotions from Our Daily Bread. Today’s devotion is titled “Spiritual Driving,” Adam R. Holz wrote this devotion. The scripture reading is from Ephesians 5:8–20; with the key verse, “Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.”, Ephesians 5:15–16. My beloved children, grandchildren, cousins, nephews, brothers, and sisters in Christ; for all I write, I first pray to God to guide my words to serve as spiritual food and guidance. I desire God to be my sole source of writing. All the credit goes to God, not me. I am his humble servant. I thank God that He led to use Our Daily Bread Ministries as my inspiration for comments.

I am incredibly passionate and tenacious in everything I do. Once I have a cause, I am all in and committed. At times I leap before I look and fall into spiritual pitfalls by what I say or do. I learned to ask God for His help to identify and resist spiritual hazards.

No matter what hazards you face, even when you stumble, you can experience your new life in Christ as you grow in dependence on His boundless power and grace.

Reflect:

What strategy do you use to recognize what might trip you up spiritually? What role do you think other believers play in identifying and resisting spiritual hazards? How might thanksgiving be a vital part of avoiding spiritual pitfalls?

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, as I navigate the spiritual potholes on life’s road, thank You for reminding me to look up to You for help.

My Prayer for You:

As you navigate the spiritual potholes on life’s road, look up to God for help.
