Blessed God,
Thank You.
(3:48 a.m.)
♪Don’t gotta be somebody when
I’m already Somebody To You
Got nothing to prove anymore
So there’s nothing to lose anymore
You’re gonna keep on loving me
For more than just the things that I do♪
(4:15 a.m.)
Again I thank You Lord.
I’ve been quite pensive the past several days. Wanting to hide away. Keep to myself. Not make anymore mistakes.
Father, I’m experiencing doubt in decision making. Fear and uncertainty that perhaps I've overspent. Having asked questions, done research and taken my time, maybe I didn’t choose the best option.
My natural response to potential mistakes? Regret. Remorse.
This is where I turn again to Your Word. This time to Exodus 14:13-14. Moses telling the people of Israel, “Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the LORD rescue you today… The LORD Himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.”
How often are my tendencies like that of the Israelite slaves? Fearful. Complaining.
Thank You that Your way is better!
The Life Recovery Bible comment for verses 14:10-12 tells of Your fearful people crying out to You for help. Proving their limited faith in You by their terrified complaining. By admitting their powerlessness, looking to You for help and being honest about their feelings they moved toward, rather than away from, You.
It’s the very last sentence in this footnote that has me smiling. “As a result, their discouragement and fear were soon turned into amazement and rejoicing (14:21-15:21).”
Thank You Father. Your way is so much better than mine. Continue Your work in teaching me to not be afraid or discouraged (Joshua 1:9). Yes Lord. I want very much to rejoice in my amazement of You.
♪I’m So Blessed I’m so blessed
Got this heartbeat in my chest
No, it doesn’t matter about the rest
If I got You Lord, I’m so blessed♪
Use me as You know is best. Rejoicing and being glad (Psalm 118:24b). I love, need, trust and want You Lord. Do all You must in growing me. Thank You. Praise You. Amen.
