Scriptures to Meditate on today !

Scriptures to Meditate on today ! I woke up this morning giving God thanks for another day.Yesterday is gone and we live for today. Whatever you didn't get done yesterday, know that everything works together for the good, for the believers. God has given us another chance to acknowledge Him and Trust Him with everything. For it is written in Proverbs 3:5-6 ,Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. We don't need to understand everything, but we must have faith, hope and trust in God's Word. Understand that God is in control of everything. Nothing just happens, He knows what's best for His Children ! Let’s face it; God’s Word will always change us, get this not everything he has called us to do will be easy and comfortable. God never promised us that it would be easy, but it will be worth it. He is always transforming us and molding us to be something different than we are today, we must trust His plan and purpose for our lives. God will always take care of His beloved children, He's the potter. In the Word, God refers to Himself as the potter and we are His clay. How awesome is that ? A lump of clay is shaped into a vessel and then refined in the fire until it becomes purified and hardened. Only then is it worthy of use, thank you Jesus. For it is written in Jeremiah 18:1-11, The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: “Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will let you hear my words.” So I went down to the potter's house, and there he was working at his wheel. And the vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter's hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to do.Then the word of the Lord came to me: “O house of Israel, can I not do with you as this potter has done? declares the Lord. Behold, like the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel. If at any time I declare concerning a nation or a kingdom, that I will pluck up and break down and destroy it, and if that nation, concerning which I have spoken, turns from its evil, I will relent of the disaster that I intended to do to it. And if at any time I declare concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will build and plant it, and if it does evil in my sight, not listening to my voice, then I will relent of the good that I had intended to do to it. Now, therefore, say to the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: ‘Thus says the Lord, Behold, I am shaping disaster against you and devising a plan against you. Return, everyone from his evil way, and amend your ways and your deeds.’ That's a very powerful message, if you don't listen to God's Word ( it's a living word) and (repent) turn from doing evil you will answer to Him. We must turn  from our ways serving our flesh to dying to self. One way to do that is to not live for pleasing the flesh. For it is written in Romans 8:5-6, For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. We seek to keep our minds on the Spiritual things because that brings truth in our “life and peace,” that can only work if we trust Christ Jesus.
