Our Daily Manna 7th April 2021
TOPIC: STAY CALM! THE JOURNEY IS SO SHORT!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: JAMES 4: 11-17
I once read the story of a young lady who was traveling in a bus. At the next bus-stop, an unkempt old lady came and sat by her. She squeezed into the seat and was bumping into her with her numerous bags. The person sitting on the other side of the young lady got upset and asked her why she did not speak up and say something to the old woman. The young lady responded with a smile: “It is not necessary to be rude or argue over something so insignificant, the journey together is so short. I get off at the next stop.” Wow! You or I would have probably complained about the action of that old woman, but this young lady was wonderful.
Our Daily Manna 7th April 2021 – STAY CALM! THE JOURNEY IS SO SHORT!
She replied the angry passenger: “It is not necessary to argue over something so insignificant, our journey together is so short” If each one of us realized that our time here on earth is so short, then to load it with quarrels, futile arguments, not forgiving others, bitterness, gossip, envy discontentment, pursuit of deadly wealth, missing church services, secret anger against God, self-pity depression, etc, would be a waste of time and energy. Are you experiencing delay to your prayer answers? Be calm, the journey is so short! Did someone break your heart? Be calm, the journey is so short!
Did someone provoke or intimidate you? Be calm, forgive; the journey is so short! Did someone CHEAT, betray, or humiliate you’? Be calm, forgive; the journey is so short! Did someone lie against you and falsely accuse you? Be calm, the journey is so short! No matter what you are allowed to pass through always remember that your journey through planet earth is so short. No one knows the duration of this journey. No one knows at what “BUS-STOP” they will come down. Life is like a VAPOUR! Today’s scripture vs 14 says – “…For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.” Did you get that?
We shall leave that “BUS” someday till the last man comes down, to continue another journey! Use today’s devotional to appreciate this journey, appreciate friends and family, plan your WILL, live holy, refuse worry, malice, etc. Talk about Jesus wherever you go, live right and stay focused on heaven at last! Stay calm! The journey is too short for a the troubles! Pray now!
