Jeremiah 32:17  “Oh, LORD God! You yourself made the heavens and earth by your great power and with your outstretched arm. Nothing is too difficult for you!” (CSB)

Mondays require reminders. Here’s a good one: Nothing is too difficult for God.

You have never had a problem he couldn’t solve. You have never been out of his reach. You have never been out of his care. You have never lacked his love. There has never been a day when he did not woo you to his very heart. 

Remember this as you plan your week. 

Remember this when your pre-mortem raises the fear of failure.

Remember this when inevitable obstacles arise. 

Remember this when best-laid plans run off the rails.

Remember this when someone hurts your feelings.

Remember this when you fail.

Remember this when you succeed.

Remember this when someone extends love and friendship to you.

Remember this when your planning and procedures produce provision for many.

Remember this when you leap over walls.

Remember this when your after-action review reveals what you did right.

Remember this as you remember that we live in a Good Friday world where everything feels like death and that we also live in a Resurrection Sunday world where everything is redeemed.

I love Monday. It builds on Sunday. It aims for the next Sunday. It reminds us of all that is true and good. It fills our dreams with wonder and delight, knowing we live in the waxing light of forever. 

I will welcome Mondays which stand between Sundays and forecast the everlasting day to come. 

Our Father, thank you for this first day of the workweek. Empower us for all that is ahead of us today and this week. Remind us as often as necessary how we are progressing toward that Day when we enter your perfect presence forever. Remind us to weep all of our tears here and now. Remind us to feel all of our pain in these waning days of woe. Remind us how death will soon be swallowed up in victory. Amen.

Daily D – Luke 1:76-79

Luke 1:76-79 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven
to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the path of peace.
(NIV)

Daily D – John 20:24-28

John 20:24-28 Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”

But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”

A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

Daily D – John 18:10-11

John 18:10, 11 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.) Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”

Daily D – John 13:3-5

John 13:3-5 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

Daily D – John 11:6

John 11:6 “So when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days, . . .”
