Clinging to the Vine

Now choose life—so that you and your descendants will live—by loving the LORD your God, by obeying his voice, and by clinging to him.

—Deuteronomy 30:19-20

Life is full of amusement to those who observe it philosophically. It is a reason to laugh out loud. For those who filter everything through the lens of the heart, through the things that touch every nerve in their being, it can be overwhelming, even tragic. Life is not easy for the sensitive of heart. Yet, for those who seek God first, who cling to the Vinedresser and press forward, it is indeed a victory.

The Vinedresser presents you with daily choices, designed to help you experience more of what he has for you. He offers you an abundant journey as you listen to him and to voices that resonate with you and stay steadily on the path. Every day, perhaps even every hour, you are asked to choose. What will you cling to?

Believers in Christ may differ in the degree, the practice, or the intensity of their system of belief, but they all have one thing in common. As believers, they all have the victory through Jesus. This is your day to proclaim the victory and to let others know your choice. Live today in the joy of the Lord.

In the Flow

Lord, you have opened your arms to me, ready to guide me on to the victory that comes from knowing you. Help me keep making the choices that will bring me safely home. Amen.
