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 – Exodus 13:17-18

Exodus 13:17, 18 When Pharaoh finally let the people go, God did not lead them along the main road that runs through Philistine territory, even though that was the shortest route to the Promised Land. God said, “If the people are faced with a battle, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.” So God led them in a roundabout way through the wilderness toward the Red Sea. Thus the Israelites left Egypt like an army ready for battle.

Daily D – Exodus 3:14-15

Exodus 3:14, 15 God replied to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM. Say this to the people of Israel: I AM has sent me to you.” God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: Yahweh, the God of your ancestors—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you. This is my eternal name, my name to remember for all generations.

Daily D – Genesis 50:19-21

Genesis 50:19-21 But Joseph replied, “Don’t be afraid of me. Am I God, that I can punish you? You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many people. No, don’t be afraid. I will continue to take care of you and your children.” So he reassured them by speaking kindly to them.”

Daily D – Genesis 46:2-4

Genesis 46:2-4 During the night God spoke to him in a vision. “Jacob! Jacob!” he called. “Here I am,” Jacob replied. “I am God, the God of your father,” the voice said. “Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for there I will make your family into a great nation. I will go with you down to Egypt, and I will bring you back again. You will die in Egypt, but Joseph will be with you to close your eyes.”

Daily D – Genesis 43:26-28

Genesis 43:26-28 When Joseph came home, they gave him the gifts they had brought him, then bowed low to the ground before him. After greeting them, he asked, “How is your father, the old man you spoke about? Is he still alive?” “Yes,” they replied. “Our father, your servant, is alive and well.” And they bowed low again.
