Hezekiah Wept


“Remember, O LORD, how I have walked before you faithfully and with wholehearted devotion and have done what is good in your eyes.” And Hezekiah wept bitterly. 2 Kings 20:3

This goes in tandem with yesterday’s devotional. Hezekiah wanted to live despite the death warrant that Isaiah delivered. He pleaded with God to not let him die. He still had work on this earth to accomplish.

Fortunately we do not have our time of death telegraphed or emailed to us. We don’t known when we’ll die. People who are killed in car crashes never expected to die so early in life. Nobody expects to die young. And yet, we have no guarantees of even another breath.

Today is just a good day to worship God for giving you life. Thank God for the things you take for granted in your life. Throughout this day, thank Him for His boundless life.
