Dawn

May 22nd – Zechariah 14:3

Zechariah 14:3

In the quiet hush of dawn, Christ first came. He came not with the roar of a Lion but with the tender grace of a Lamb, walking amongst us in humility and love. But Zechariah’s prophecy regarding the second triumphant return of Jesus is very different. For this time He will come not as the gentle and humble Lamb, but as the fierce Lion of Judah, majestic and mighty. Oh how the anticipation swells within our hearts, knowing that we shall ride alongside Him! On white chargers, our souls ablaze with the fire of righteousness, we too will return. For we will be given the honor and privilege to be counted among the ranks of God’s mighty army. Standing firm in the face of darkness, wielding the sword of truth, we will march boldly for the Lord. So as the days grow short until the dawn of His return, let us lift our voices in joy! Because we are chosen to stand shoulder to shoulder with the King of Kings, as His faithful warriors in the battle for righteousness and redemption.

Jeremiah 31:3

Life isn’t always sunny days and rose filled gardens. There are times that are brutal, life altering, and heart breaking. But even the blackest of nights can’t last forever. For the light of the dawn will always surely come. And for Christians, that Light is God and His endless love. A love that stands as a beacon of hope, illuminating the path to restoration and renewal. Even when circumstances seem bleak, God’s love is an ever-flowing stream. One ready to cleanse, revive, and transform our weary souls. Because as our Heavenly Father, His commitment to us extends beyond our shortcomings and struggles. His everlasting love and boundless kindness, carry an amazing power. Power to mend our brokenness, heal our wounds, and breathe new life into every shattered aspect of our being. So as we navigate dark days, may we cling to the assurance of Jeremiah 31:3. And find comfort in the unchanging and rejuvenating love of our Creator, who promises to uplift us in every season of life.

Lamentations 3:22

As fallen beings living in a fallen world, we make mistakes. But no matter how badly we mess up, when we confess and repent, God is faithful to forgive our sins. And regardless of the mistakes we made the day before, each morning God gives us the gift of a fresh start. In His love and grace, the Lord offers every dawn as a blank slate and a new opportunity. And although some days will be good while others bad, every day we get to spend on earth is a gift.  So each morning thank God for His faithfulness and say, “This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it! “
