Poised

by Bruce Wadd

Diesel, my faithful canine, waits for my instruction. ‘Which path will he go down?’ he asks on our early morning walk? His stance says everything about his readiness for action, and also shows his willingness to wait for instruction.

All I need to say is, “This way …”, and he is off with passion, running to his heart's content till the next intersection!

I just wonder today, how you would look if I was to watch? Do others see a person poised and ready to follow the Master? Wanting to do everything in His way, in His time?

Here’s a question to take some time to ponder… Are you listening, ready to act on what the Holy Spirit asks?

Jesus, at His most important hour, instructed his closest companions…

“Keep alert and pray. Otherwise temptation

will overpower you. For the spirit indeed is willing,

but how weak the body is!”

Matthew 26:41

TODAY, how poised are you?
