Word of Encouragement for Every New Day ~ 30 Sep 2007

Today’s word of encouragement is about working on our blind spots. It isn’t easy for us to accept that we have blind spots because no one wants to take the effort to change. I know that I am, and most of us are guilty of that. It is important to pin-point key blind spots in our lives to fix, especially if it is causing us to draw further away from God. The reason why I say this is because, everyone has blind spots. It is important to find and focus on the key areas to work on rather than the ones that are ineffective. God has given us people in our lives, to help us discern and reveal areas to work on. Family members, friends, and wise counsel. It is important who we listen to and who we trust, because it would be pointless and ineffective if we try to listen to everyone’s suggestions. In Psalm 146:8, “The LORD gives sight to the blind, the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down, the LORD loves the righteous.” Today, let us pray that we come with open hearts to seek God, seek wise counsel of areas in our lives where we have blind spots that God wants us to work on, so that we can be fully used by God for His kingdom. © Sept 2007 Shaun Lee
