Waking up to Life
“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me”. Revelation 3:20
I recently caught snippets of “Thelma & Louise” again on TV. Right after I put our eldest to bed, this bit of dialogue woke me right up:
Thelma: Are you awake?
Louise: I guess you could call it that. My eyes are open.
Thelma: Me too. I feel awake ... Wide awake. I never remember feeling this awake. Know what I mean? Everything looks different.
I remember when Jesus became the center of my life. There was life before Jesus and life after Jesus. How grateful I am that He banged at the door of my life and came in to wake me up to Himself.
Reflect:
• Do you remember the time when you made Jesus the center of your existence? How has life changed for you since then?
• How awake are you today?
Jesus, You are my Awakening and my Life. Breathe on me today and fill my body with life so I may worship You with all that I am.

Life has changed so much for me for the better. I am fully awake knowing that Jesus fills my body with life every day. Love to Worship him daily and to give him Thanks for everything he does for me.

After going through the devotional, I am compelled to ponder my life's happenings in the recent past and am feeling guilty.
Thank you for this thought.
May God bless you richly.
