How do you feel about all this?  I’m lost…

You know what’s best for me…  that which is also best for you.  All the perfect things bless those whom are associated.

“All things work together for the good of those who love You” – Romans 8:28

I could pray to love you more or I could pray that you’d “spoil” me with blessing, but can I really separate the two?  Can I bring myself to say that my model of perfection is anything other than living by your love?  I can’t!

Are my hands tied?  Should I give up my battles for my desires?  I mean, should I abandon my self-given and possibly God-given missions altogether? Does anything really come by trying, or are these gifts based on your desire to give and your timing?  Maybe I only need to ask. Maybe I only need to wait.  I love you Lord.  I don’t want to try to reach for things that you are intentionally keeping out of my hands. 

You know my heart.  With my limited knowledge, I can justify my actions.  Your grace covers my mistakes.  Either I’m too bold, or not bold enough, therefore, my actions mismatch my decisions. Still, you have control. Really, the only danger I face is the common flaw of causing my own suffering; relieved by the joy that comes from backing down and trusting you again.  There’s no trap that will hold me.  Ultimately, I’ll always collect myself under your grace and continue on.  Thank you Lord, for you who are!  You’re plans and desires are so great.  Help me to live alongside them.
