This afternoon I took a drive to have some time in for reflection and  
prayer. I drove to our family cabin near Elkins WV. This morning I  
realized after cutting my grass last week it would probably be good to  
cut the grass at the cabin too.  It's all done now.
As I sat alongside the river and watched the flow, I could help but  
think about the flow and rhythm of my own life. My family and my  
people have always been river people.  The river reminds us of the  
power of God and his deliberate and constant work in our lives.
Sometimes our lives get out of rhythm, but God never does. Sometimes  
our lives seem out of control, but just like the river, God always  
accomplished His purposes.
As I sit here along the river I'm reminded of His infinite stability  
and resoluteness of purpose.
Wherever you might be today, take time to reflect on God's perfect  
stability and strength. There are many purposes God wants to carry out  
in our world and lives, and He offers each one of us an opportunity to  
join in that work. In His time. According to His purpose and plan.
May God achieve His purposes through you today!
