Be Amazed
By Robert Schaetzle
“The men were amazed, and said, “What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?” Mathew 8:27 NASB
How much of our waking hours do we purpose to witness something beautiful? To be amazed as were the apostles to witness the power of God at work?
Each day when I awake, I purpose to dedicate the day to our Lord. In doing so I know I’m resting in the very power of his presence. Regardless of the challenges that might come before the day is through. Jesus is my confidence and strength to the tasks before me.
I love writing, and every time I sit down at the key board I first dedicate my thoughts and words for God’s honor. I ask for His Spirit to write through me, what God wants to be known.
In my serving others, and preaching, through opportunity to proclaim Him, the course of action I take I purpose His power and authority to prevail.
I might be taking our dog out for a morning stroll and pass someone I’ve never met before. My thoughts are: “Lord, what do you want me to share with this person?” Ask Him advance and you too will ‘be Amazed’what words or actions of encouragement might come out.
One day sitting with my wife at the hospital during Christmas, while she was being administered her chemo treatments, I shared with the administering clinical nurse a Christmas prayer I’d written years before. She thanked me and said she would post it at her nurse’s station.
Be available to “Be Amazed” because you never know when you’re presenting God’s presence in time of need.
