Me: What does today look like for you?
Prodigal: I’m busier than a long-nosed weevil in a cotton patch.
Me: I will not take up too much of your time then.
This is from A.W. Tozer The Pursuit of God
A spiritual kingdom lies all about us, enclosing us, embracing us, altogether within reach of our inner selves, waiting for us to reorganize it. God himself is here waiting our response to His Presence. This eternal world will come alive to us the moment we begin to reckon upon its reality.
The fast pace, the stress, the demands, the deadlines, are of this world. God is calling you to look beyond them for this moment. There is an eternal kingdom that will bring about a peace and you are part of it. Today God would like you to remember the eternal purpose and not get carried away with the kingdom that will pass away.
O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth forever.
Psalm 118:29
