amazed again

Blessed God,

Thank You! I was able to have more sleep. Complete with a remembered dream. And music with which to awaken. Thank You Father.

Yes. Thank You Lord. 

I have a tendency to overthink and complicate things. Causing me to become fearful and afraid. I am bringing these inclinations to You. Asking (Matthew 7:7) that You would use, change or completely remove them from me altogether.

(6:38 a.m.)

I’ve said it before Lord, You never cease to amaze me!

I bring my complicated thinking to You and You provide Scripture (Colossians 1:2-24) after Scripture (Acts 25 and 26) reminding me that I am not alone here. Thank You Father.

(7:44 a.m.)

And with that Truth, I was up and into action. Realizing that I want desperately to use well the time, talents and treasures You have allowed me. Yes Father. I want to use them wisely and well.

This is where I come confessing the embarrassment I feel because I don’t know how! You have the plan. The one that’s for good and not for evil. The one to give us a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11). I want to trust THAT! Not my own wavering indecisions.

Father, again I ask (Matthew 7:7) You to embolden, empower and enable me in becoming the good steward You would have me be. “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it” (Psalm 24:1). Teach me to treat it as such.

I love You Father. I need, trust and want to glorify You. Train me. Use me. Thank You. Amen.
