Nothing profound happened.
There were no outstanding instances.
There were no terrible letdowns, or disappointments.
There was no startling or unexpected news.
It was an absolutely typical Wednesday.
And yet,
today was a day for sanctification.
I heard
recently this phrase:
Sanctification provides a
reason for everything.
Often times
I take that to mean that all the unexpected,
unusual, hard, challenging circumstances in my life, these God uses to
sanctify me. When something doesn't go
my way - God's sanctifying me.
I forget
that God uses normal days to sanctify
me. God uses everyday circumstances to
bring me further along the path to holiness.
Today was a
day to live fully for Christ - in all it's normalcy.
"Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." [1 Thessalonians 5:23]
