Thank You Father,

I failed a friend yesterday. More than likely I will fail myself and others again today. And into the future. Thank You that You never do. And You never will.

Thank You that even while looking up the opposite of failure I get to learn the simplest, most often used word is success. What a concept. And another opportunity for change.

Yes! Change my fear of failing into an anticipation of success.

I confess to You Dearest Dad, there are occasions that I truly do expect all to go well. According to plan. Only to have much crumble before me. Teach me YOUR approach I ask (Matthew 7:7a). According to YOUR will. And YOUR plan (Jeremiah 29:11; Proverbs 16:9).

(5:33 a.m.)

Lord God, You are so very good to us. How I thank You for singing me awake this morning. Reminding me of who and all You are.

(Psalm 37:23)

Use me today Dearest God. As only You know is best. Anticipating success rather than fearing failure. Let me fear [and worship; with awe-filled reverence and profound respect] You instead! (Deuteronomy 10:12a Amplified Bible).

I want to walk [that is, to live each and every day] in Your ways. Loving and serving You with all my heart and soul [choices, thoughts, whole being” (v.12b, c).

Do all You must Blessed Lord. I love, need, trust and want You. Thank You. Praise You. Amen.
