" . . . because you did not recognize the time of God's coming to you," Luke 19:44b.
Please, Lord, do not let me close my eyes to my day, my moment, the hour of your coming to me. Help me to recognize the strange gods in my life for what they are -- not friends but enemies, not good things but idols, lovers who would woo me with promises and keep me from you. And when my eyes are open and I see my lovers for the traitors that they are, help me, Lord -- compel me -- to turn aside, to turn 180 degrees and run into your arms. Help me, Lord Jesus.
