As I began to journal this morning I was asking Jesus to help me know where His throne is within me? I want so much to have my focus throughout the day being upon Him and Him alone. It seemed as though if I knew where within me He is I could better stay focused on Him. Well, I was not expecting a clear cut answer, but instead, here is what I unexpectedly received.

My devotional readings focused on giving my all to God so He would be the focus of my day. The wisdom He wants me to draw from is not that which man produces, but what His Holy Spirit produces within me at the time I need it–often His Words in scripture. The scripture reading was when Christ didn’t accompany his parents as they left Jerusalem. When they returned to find him they found him in the temple with the scholars. His words to them were something like, “Didn’t you know I need to be about my Father’s business?”

Then, after praying over my prayer list I read the 90-day book I reference often. Its focus was on the truth that God takes all of our sinfulness and reassembles it into a vessel of His making. It is beautiful when we allow this to happen for He wants to make our mess into His Message. I’ve known this for several years now, but what I saw in my mind today was Christ standing at the Cross where my sins are buried. He beckoned me to join Him. He is proud of who He has recreated in this new life called Earnie, and He wants me to not only join Him, but to do so with pride and joyful gratitude.

I didn’t get my question specifically answered, but what I got instead is a purpose that brings joy to my heart and tears to my eyes. How grateful I am and with pride I join Jesus as He beckons me to do so. All I now know is that this vessel He has recreated is filled with HIs Holy Spirit’s presence! WOW!
