Prisoner of a Worthy Cause [Ephesians 4:1]
“I therefore, the PRISONER {the person HELD AS SECURITY for the FULFILLMENT OF AN AGREEMENT} for The LORD, APPEAL TO and BEG you to WALK (LEAD A LIFE) WORTHY {having WORTH, MERIT or VALUE; DESERVING EFFORT, ATTENTION or RESPECT} of the [DIVINE] CALLING to which you HAVE BEEN CALLED [with BEHAVIOR that is A CREDIT {an ASSET; having the ABILITY to OBTAIN GOODS or SERVICES (FAVOR) BEFORE "payment", based on THE TRUST that "payment" WILL BE MADE in the future} to the summons to GOD’S SERVICE"
~Ephesians 4:1 [AMP] {and DEFINED}

This Day
I’m looking forward to a day full of FAVOR, that will SURPASS ANY and ALL frustrations that may come my way…
I’m looking forward to a day full of PURPOSE, that will OUTWEIGH people, place or problems that would to distract me…
I’m looking forward to a day that will cause me to SMILE about EVERYTHING OVER being SAD about ANYTHING…
THANK YOU, Lord, in advance for THIS DAY! 
Ephesians 2:8-9
GRACE is God doing FOR US what we could NEVER do for OURSELVES and what we will NEVER deserve…
“For it is by FREE GRACE (God’s UNMERITED FAVOR) that you are SAVED (DELIVERED FROM JUDGEMENT and made PARTAKERS OF CHRIST’S SALVATION) through [your] FAITH. And this [salvation] is NOT OF YOURSELVES [OF YOUR OWN DOING, it came NOT THROUGH YOUR OWN STRIVING], but it is the GIFT OF GOD; NOT because of works [NOT the fulfillment of the Law’s demands], lest any man should boast. [It is NOT the result of WHAT ANYONE CAN POSSIBLY DO, so no one can pride himself in it or take glory to himself.]” Ephesians 2:8-9
No One Eats For Free
if YOU want to eat from THE KING’S TABLE, YOU have to COMPLY with the KING’S COMMANDS…

Living for Christ
while you were breaking GOD’S heart, doing things YOUR way, trying to get YOURS, HE was LAYING DOWN GRACE & MERCY, PULLING STRINGS & FAVOR trying to SAVE YOURS! YOU OWE HIM YOUR LIFE!

2 Corinthians 12:7-10
another early [and long] morning… receiving my 4th [and, prayerfully, final] out-patient IV steroid & pain treatment for current MS exacerbation..
“And to keep me from being puffed up and too much elated by the exceeding greatness (preeminence) of these revelations, there was given me a thorn (a splinter) in the flesh, a messenger of Satan, to rack and buffet and harass me, to keep me from being excessively exalted. [Job. 2:6.] Three times I called upon the Lord and besought [Him] about this and BEGGED that it might depart from me; But He said to me, My GRACE (My FAVOR and LOVING-KINDNESS and MERCY) is ENOUGH for you [SUFFICIENT against ANY danger and enables you to BEAR the trouble manfully]; for My strength and power are made PERFECT (FULFILLED and COMPLETED) and show themselves MOST EFFECTIVE in [YOUR] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more GLADLY GLORY in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the STRENGTH and POWER of CHRIST (the MESSIAH) may rest (yes, may PITCH A TENT OVER and DWELL) UPON ME! So for the sake of Christ, I am WELL PLEASED and TAKE PLEASURE in infirmities, insults, hardships, persecutions, perplexities and distresses; for when I am weak [in HUMAN strength], then am I [TRULY] STRONG (ABLE, POWERFUL in DIVINE strength).” 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 [AMP]
I’m looking forward to…
I’m looking forward to a day full of FAVOR, that will SURPASS any and all frustrations that may come my way… I’m looking forward to a day full of PURPOSE, that will OUTWEIGH people, place or problems that would to distract me… and I’m looking forward to a day that will cause me to SMILE about EVERYTHING over being sad about anything… THANK YOU, LORD, in advance for this day!
