Good morning, Papa God!
I have a choice. I can continue to try and control situations or I can give them over to You. I know I am not strong enough or smart enough or wise enough to run my own life. You give me the strength and the wisdom for each day’s choices. When I choose to do things my way and not listen to You, my life gets seriously derailed, and the struggles begin, like now. So, I am laying down this struggle and choosing to put it in the box marked “TFGTD” – things for God to do. I am putting my struggle in my “God box” and I am putting the lid on it. I am letting You keep this and fix it however You choose. I am trusting You to do whatever You deem is best for me. The struggle to go back and pick it up is real. Right now, I am not strong, but weak. Yes, Papa God, I know Your grace is sufficient in this as it is in all trials. Help me to be strong and to leave this in Your hands to accomplish Your will. You are God, ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, to those who call upon Your name. I rend my heart and lay it before You. There are some days, Papa God, that I don’t like myself very much … those days when I struggle with sin and fail to stand strong in my faith. I know that You forgive. I know that I do not see me as You see me. You never give up on me. You never leave me alone to deal with life by myself. You always stay with me, no matter what I do or don’t do. You are Jehovah-Shammah, the God who is there. I don’t deserve the grace and mercy that You pour out on me. My soul waits silently for You alone, my God; for my expectations in this life and the next are from You. In this struggle, I am awaiting Your resolution and direction. I am leaving it in Your box of things You will do in my life.
Good morning, My child!
No matter what you believe you are capable of or what you believe about yourself and your situations and struggles, I know your intended purpose because I set it into motion according to My plan for you. I can do great things through a surrendered life. I have and I will with yours. You have surrendered this, and put it into My “box.” I will do the rest. Be still and trust Me. It is when you admit that you are weak and powerless “to change’ or “to fix” things that I become your strength. When you let Me have My way in your life, then resolution comes and My intended purpose for your life manifests itself. I have forgiven you when you have asked me to do so. My child, so cease berating yourself. When you continue to berate yourself it gives our enemy a foothold to wreak havoc within your mind and emotions. Be strong in My power and might, and continue to listen to My Spirit’s voice. He will lead into the truth of what to do and say. Trust Me enough to let things happen without striving to control or predict them. Do not rehearse what you will say or do. I will let you know those things at the right moment. You are not adequate to meet life's demands without My help. Let Me be God in your life because I AM! Live fully in My Presence, depending on Me in each moment of life.
(Phil.4:10; 2 Cor.12:9; Eph.6:10; Neh.9:17; Psa.62:5)
