Habakkuk 3:1-18
"Though the fig tree does not blossom, and no fruit is on the vines; though the produce of the olive fails and the fields yield no food; though the flock is cut off from the fold and there is no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD; I will exult in the God of my salvation."
At times, when we catch ourselves in the daily doldrums of life, when we are stuck in a seemingly endless routine of monotony and repetition, it is hard to rid ourselves of negativity and frustration. Life is not always easy nor is it always overwhelmingly exciting. At these moments, when we feel the pressures and relentless cycles of life we must do our best to seek out God's presence in it all. It may only be the laughter of a small child, the perfect song on the radio, or a warm cup of coffee, but God's presence can seen and felt even during those time when our fig tree does not blossom.
Amid the routine of your daily life, where have you seen or felt God's presence today?
God, we are humbled. Humbled by your never-ending presence in our lives. Help us to escape our own negativity and find your love and grace in our every moment. Amen.
