S3 - Day 5 of 27
Day 5 found me up at the crack of dawn to embark on a two-hour journey to a Divine appointment with Destiny. I spent the two hours in quiet reflection and intimate communication with my only passenger. I knew that what I was embarking upon had greater significance than what I could conceive with my human mind. Nevertheless, I was comforted by an overwhelming sense that He was preparing me for the Divine Destiny that He had so lovingly designed.
As I neared my destination, I received a phone call that informed me that the charged situation into which I was headed had been escalated. The stakes had been raised, and I was expected to come in to help diffuse the tension. All eyes on you. Again, God in His sovereignty had used means that I couldn't understand at the time to prepare me for just this moment. On this day, I not once gave a conscious thought to the absence of food, nor was thanksgiving and selflessness a discipline requiring thought and concerted effort. It's funny how consecration comes easily when you find yourself thrust into the place where preparation meets opportunity under the umbrella of favor: on the receiving end of an invitation to a Divine appointment with Destiny.
Day 5 Thanksgiving: Intimate Friendship
I am daily grateful for the gift of friendship, but it is not until I truly have to call upon it that I am made aware of the depth, breadth and sheer power of a special bond that I share with an intimate few. I am blessed to have loved ones with whom I can share my heart and who consistently and persistently intercede on my behalf on the deepest matters of my heart and most significant moments of my life. I am truly blessed beyond measure.
Day 5 Prayer: Individuals Overwhelmed by Loneliness
Lord I pray that you would bring comfort to the hearts of every individual who is experiencing unbearable loneliness. For every individual experiencing a profound sense of isolation and undesired solitude, I pray that you would surround them with the fullness of your presence and an abundance of your love. Take the sting away from the loneliness, restore those relationships that need to be restored, and create pathways for new relationships that will fulfill the need for healthy human connection. Help each of use to be more attuned to those around us and sensitive to their heart cry - particularly during the holiday season.
