Daily Devotions - Wednesday, January 9

What Is The Important Stuff?

“A heart at peace gives life to the body,
but envy rots the bones.”
Proverbs 14:30

One of the valuable textbooks for living is Mitch Albom’s book Tuesdays with Morrie. Mitch discovered that his revered college professor, Morrie, was dying. He took off a number of Tuesdays to go and visit his old professor. In today’s devotion we hear some important questions from their second visit. Morrie poses these questions as a guide for living:

1. Have you found someone to share your heart with?
2. Are you giving to your community?
3. Are you at peace with yourself?
4. Are you trying to be as human as you can be?

These questions are worthy of thought, particularly as we consider what we want to experience during 2008. Have a good day.


A prayer for the year 2008:
Holy God, fill my heart (and your world) with peace. Amen.
