Good Morning, Papa God!
I sit and ponder about so many things this morning regarding my life. But this one thing I do … I forget what lies behind, even though it has brought me to where I am. But where I am is not where I will stay. I press on toward all that You will have me to do and be! For I know in whom I have believed –You! – and I am fully convinced and fully persuaded that You are able to keep that which I have committed to You – my life, my heart, and my soul. How do I know this? Because You are God. You are faithful. You are not a man that You should lie, nor like a human that You to repent. Have You not said, and will You not do? Or have You spoken, and will You not make it good? Of course, You have! You have said what You will do in my life and in this world; and this I know – Your word will not return to You void. You have set Your call upon me, and You are faithful to accomplish that call. All Your promises in Christ are Yes, and in Him Amen to Your glory. It still boggles my mind that You chose to use frail and weak humans to tell others about Jesus and bring You glory. You have so many creative plans to accomplish Your work here on earth. So, it should come to no surprise to me that Your plans for me have been and will be equally creative as You accomplish Your will in my life. You are faithful to complete the good work that You started in me. I believe all Your promises are true, and they are all fulfilled in Christ. I believe in You and in Your great love for me as You showed me by giving Your Son on the Cross for my sin debt. I know I can trust You because You love me! I can trust You with all of the details of my life That I have been trying to control.
My child,
Your faith increases daily. Your trust in Me to accomplish all I plan for you is such a great act of faith, and My heart overflows with pleasure. Your surrendered heart, totally dependent on Me, is the greatest gift you can offer Me. I know how difficult it is for you to let go and to not plan your next steps. Letting go of control of the pieces and situations of your life makes you afraid of the future, but trusting Me to handle everything brings you peace. You need to place all your trust and faith in Me. You are small as you stand in front of difficult situations. They seem like a “Goliath” to you. But when you bring your smallness and combine it with My greatness, the situations do not seem so frighteningly large or difficult. When you trust Me and adopt this view of problems, peace will reign within you in this place where I have led you … when you are totally dependent on Me. Have faith in Me. I will never fail you.
