Your best for me

 Monday, February 1, 2021 (5:56 a.m.)

Holy God,

Good morning. Great sleep. New month. More opportunities. Mm, yes.

Blessed Lord, I’m turning to Your Word.

James 4:17

Matthew 5:3-5 (toowayhon The Passion Translation)

Isaiah 61:1-2

1 Corinthians 12:31

Reading. Wanting. Asking. Seeking. Knocking (Matthew 7:7). Yes Lord. I truly long to do and BE all that You know is best for me.

Hmm…

A new-to-me song sings ♪I live to testify I live because You died You gave Your best for me And I give my all to You♪ Here’s where I have to stop and confess that I don’t give my all to You.

It’s true. I only give my some to You. Rarely is it ever my best.

Maybe that’s why James 4:17 is the first verse that popped up this morning. “If you fail to do what you know is right, you are sinning.”

So I’m here before You Lord. Asking You to change my indifferent attitude into one of purpose.

I saw You work yesterday Lord. In me. Through me. By me. Something as simple as a perfectly timed, very well received meal. All three recipes calling for the same oven temperature. Each variation truly Holy Spirit led.

Blessed God, as silly as it seems, the overwhelming reaction far outweighed the effort. I continue now giving You ALL the praise and glory! It was honestly one of those occasions that I experienced You doing all the work.

Deep breaths. Baby steps. Moving forward. Giving my all to You. ♪You gave Your best for me♪ 

Embolden and empower me to following Your lead. Closely. Obediently. Wholeheartedly.

Do all You must Blessed Father that I will truly accept, adapt, admire and appreciate all it is You do for me. Giving my all to You in return. You know exactly what Your best for me looks like. Make me open and willing to honestly receiving and utilizing it.

I love You. I need You. I want You. I thank and praise You. Use me. Completely. Amen.
