God Uses Storms to Wean Us from the World
Scripture
“Arise, for this is not your rest.” — Micah 2:10
Personal Reflection
Affliction loosens my grip from the things I cannot keep and directs me to the things I cannot lose.
Contemplation
How has suffering redirected my affections toward heaven?
Puritan Quote
Thomas Watson wrote, “God’s rod is a pencil to draw Christ’s image upon us.”
Prayer
Wean me from the world, O Lord, and draw my soul upward.
Application
Fast from one worldly comfort today and meditate on heaven.
