Word of Encouragement for Every New Day ~ 6 Dec 2007

Song of Solomon 1:6 (NKJV) They made me the keeper of the vineyards, But my own vineyard I have not kept. Isn’t it amazing that the Word of God can be so real and powerful; furthermore, relatable to life in this modern era? I hope that we would spend some time reflecting on this verse in Song of Solomon 1:6, because we often fall into this trap, and in the end the only person who will suffer, who is to blame, is OURSELVES. We are often chasing after something, dreams, goals, desires, titles, money, but in the end of the day, what we are chasing after is only as good as itself. What matters is not the title—being the “keeper” of the vineyard, but really how much we have spent time building our vineyard. The vineyard is our lives, the inner man/woman in us. Deep down inside us, does Jesus really live inside us? On a daily basis, who is in control—God or you? Being a keeper of our own vineyard, many want the title, but not many really know how to keep their vineyards well. How does your vineyard look today? © Dec 2007 Shaun Lee
