*THE RESTORER'S DAILY GUIDE*

DATE: FRIDAY 23RD MAY 2025

THEME: *TRAVEL AT YOUR PACE*

MEMORIZE
2 Corinthians 10:12
For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

READ
John 21:20-22
Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee?
Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
*We are called differently for different reasons, hence our uniqueness in everything*

MESSAGE
Life is a journey and we all travel differently, many times in different directions and with different assignments from God.

However, if we all follow God's plans for our lives individually and particularly, there will always be a converging point though we may be traveling in different directions.

As our capacities vary so also is our destinies. God built every person's capacity based on his or her destiny.

We are not the same, neither are we wired the same way this is because our purposes and destinies are not the same either. Each of us is uniquely different from others.

In today's text, Jesus reprimanded Peter for busybody instead of minding his own calling and assignment. *We are called differently for different reasons hence our uniqueness in everything.*

The donkey for instance is not as fast as the horse, it doesn't travel as fast as the horse, but it's a very unique beast of burden and transport. For instance, it covers an average distance of about 20km a day. It is not as smart as the horse, sometimes, we call people who are not smart donkeys; but the donkey is a very clever beast, it can memorise and remember any route it travels, the horse may not and must needs be guided always.

So even if you can't travel as fast as a horse, be glad if you can move like a donkey, after all, it is said that slow and steady wins the race.

Consider also that our Lord chose to use a donkey to enter Jerusalem. The king of Kings travelled on a donkey. The Holy family travelled from Nazareth to Bethlehem the birth place of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, it took about 9days for them to get there in those days, (a journey of about 180km) however, the important thing was that they arrived on schedule for the birth of the Savior!

If you will focus all your energy on your goal and destination in life and keep on moving according to your strength and pace, you also will arrive on schedule.

Avoid the rat race of comparing yourself with other people, envying and competing with others. You will never be like them no matter how you try because you were created differently for different reasons.

Appreciate your uniqueness and celebrate it.

Shalom!

ACTION STEPS
1. Discover your uniqueness and celebrate it.
2. Avoid emulations and seditions.
3. Stay within the boundaries of your grace and mercy from God.

REMEMBER
*We are called differently for different reasons, hence our uniqueness in everything*

HYMN
Just as I am------without one plea,
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come !

2
Just as I am---poor, wretched, blind,
Sight, riches, healing of the mind ;
Yea, all I need, in Thee to find,
O Lamb of God, 1 come !

3
Just as I am-----Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve :
Because thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come !

4
Just as I am----Thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down :
Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come !
