Devotion on God's Goodness, Dealing with Down Days, Genesis 28:20-22a. 2 pages.

Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat and clothing to wear, so that I come again to my father’s house in peace, then the LORD shall be my God, and this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, shall be God’s house” (Genesis 28:20–22a).

Something is missing. Have you ever felt that way? You walk into a room and something is different. Something is wrong. Something is missing. Maybe you notice it right away or maybe it takes a while for you to finally figure it out. How does it feel when you are not sure what is missing? How does it feel when you figure it out? What if you can’t change the fact that something is missing?

Does your heart melt when you see a tiny baby? Infants look so precious and vulnerable. Can you imagine the overflowing joy in Simeon’s heart when he first saw the baby Jesus, instantly knowing this little being was also the promised Messiah, God’s precious Son?

But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. The saying is trustworthy … (Titus 3:4-8a).

"When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field right up to its edge, neither shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest. And you shall not strip your vineyard bare, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am the Lord your God."

Devotion on Joyful, Service, Relationship with God, Psalm 100:2. 1 page.

Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing (Psalm 100:2)! 

This invitation from the psalmist is something that often gets forgotten in the rush of our daily lives. When this happens we let our human feelings of guilt, frustration, obligation, and weariness deprive ourselves of the gladness God wants us to have and enjoy.
