We pray that in all our ways we will acknowledge you and lean not on our own understanding, but rather trust in you Lord, with all our heart.
This week's addition to our daily prayer is a simplified and pure sentiment of my thoughts from the last few weeks. God has been stretching and testing my mind in some incredible ways. This added line to our prayer reminds me that I don't know everything, and in truth, I hardly know anything. The only thing I do know is that there is a God and He is good; I know that from personal relationship with Him. He's made sacrifices and suffered for the sole purpose of making a way to you and me. This crazy God of Love is the same all-powerful Author of the Universe who knows everything because He created everything. And so I see no other rational option than to fully trust Him with all my heart and to consecrate to Him all my life to make His own because He is so amazing and He will use that trust to transform me and mold me into closer relationship with and likeness of Him.
No dear brother and sisters, I am still not all I should be but I am focusing all my energies on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14
