Thought for Today – January 7
Did You Go To The Garden This Morning?
Did you go to the garden this
morning where Jesus was waiting for you? Did he greet you there,
with your burdens and cares, did he bid you to give them to him?
When you met with the Lord in the garden, did he tell you that all
would be well, if you only believe, and his love would receive, and
that no one could take you from him? When you walked in the garden
with Jesus this morn in the cool of the day, did he tell you of
heaven, his home up above? Did he tell you that he was the way?
If you did not go to the garden,
this morn at the breaking of day, to meet with the Lord who was
waiting for you, to take all your burdens away – then you have
missed a great blessing that could have been yours, had you
worshiped at his throne of grace. He wanted to comfort and give you
sweet rest, and wipe all the tears from your face. Had you met in
the garden with Jesus this morn at the breakiing of day, great peace
would be yours after hearing his voice, saying child you have nothing
to fear – for all will be well if with me you will dwell, and
walk in the garden with me.
I went to the garden this morning
where Jesus was waiting for me. We walked and we talked and we had
fellowship there. He showed me his plan for today, one day at a
time, each moment I'll find his guidance sufficient for me, if I will
but trust in his holy word, and be led by his spirit, you see!
Oh friend won't you come to the
garden each morn at the breaking of day, where the roses are fresh
with the dew of the morn, and the birds sing so sweetly of love, to
walk with him there, and so to prepare to live in his presence above?
Oh! Who then will come to the
garden to pray, where Jesus is waiting for you? He waits for you
there to show you the way, and show you the depths of his love. For
you see, he is not willing for you to be lost, and cast into eternal
hell. All your sin debt was paid when he died on the cross. He
carried your guilt all away. And when he arose on that first Easter
morning, how fresh was the breaking of day! The dew on the rose, and
the song of the birds, in the garden they met Jesus there. Sins
debts were paid, death was destroyed when Jesus came out of the tomb.
Forever there will be, for you and for me, a place by his sanctified
throne.
So, why don't you come this
morning with me to the beautiful garden of prayer, to tell him how
thankful we are for his love, and that we have a home over there.
With these morning thoughts still
fresh in our hearts, let us walk with him all through the day. As he
guides us along and shows us the way, let us but trust and obey.
Then when the shadows of night come along, and we come to the end of
our day, we can rejoice and lay down to sleep with assurance of
waking to an eternal day.
