Holy God,

Thank You.

♪Come believe it

 Come receive it♪

Thank You for the opportunity and privilege of waking up singing to the Creator of the universe. 

(4:40 a.m.)

Lord, my heart is filled with gratitude. I accomplished sorting. Labeling. And packing away yesterday.

Not in the typical “have to do this” mindset of my past. No. The approach was a bit more playful. Confident. Definitive. Yes. It was done decisively and with authority.

Which means, I believed I knew what I was doing. You did this for me. In. With. By. And through.

I kept calling on Your name. Asking (Matthew 7:7) for Your help.

Yes it may very well have taken close to three weeks to “git ‘er done” but done it did get. Thank You Lord.

You are helping me learn things about myself. To accept what I see as flaws and allow You to use them for good (2 Corinthians 4:7).

(5:18 a.m.)

Well, this is fun. Delightful I’d even say!

While thinking of accepting myself, the tune of an early 1970’s song immediately started singing to me. Changing ♪Express Yourself♪ to ♪ACCEPT Yourself♪ I believe You are on to something here Dear Lord.

Continue Your work in guiding and growing me. I want to live for You. Do all You must for Your Kingdom and Your glory. I love, need, trust and want You. Use me as You know is best. Thank You. Praise You. Amen.
