I'm going to be really honest with you, God. This has not been my favorite week of 2015. I am really grateful for so many blessings. I seriously am. Yet You know what kind of week it has been and I am not too happy about it. So many things have happened that I didn't plan. So many things I planned didn't happen. I am a bit frustrated and You know how I like getting my "to do" list done. I know I should focus on You and honor You no matter what this journey brings. But I want to make the most of this journey...each moment of every day. Yet here I am frustrated and feeling like my work is not being done.
What's that? Yes, I know I belong to You. Yes, I also realize that my focus should be on You above all else. Ohhhhhh, that's true. I am Your work in progress...and I know that means Your work isn't exactly complete in me, either. Hmmmmm. I know...my driven tendencies often get in the way of my priorities. Quite often. So....I certainly need to pause, refocus and realign my priorities. Listening to You, leaning on You and loving You are more important than anything else. When You slow me down, I need to be still. When You hold me, I don't need to hurry. When You love me, I don't need a list. When You teach me, I need to learn. When You are with me, no moment is a waste. Nothing else matters except knowing You more each moment. Forgive me, God, for rushing instead of receiving Your love and direction. My week has been different...very different...than what I planned. Thank You for reminding me that You matter most.<3~thl
