DEAR GOD: What Will You Do?

I know, O Lord, that the way of human beings is not in their control, that mortals as they walk cannot direct their steps.

Jeremiah 10:23 (NRS)

 

We’ve all had moments in our life where we will ask, “what should I do?”   We must realize that we can’t do anything on our own, nor should we.

The truth is our LORD is mighty and powerful, and it is He whom we should turn to in all matters of our life.  The questions then should be, “LORD, what will You do?  How can You guide me in this situation?

When we fully surrender to the LORD, realizing He is ultimately the One in control over us, and everything in the Universe. When we acquiesce to His will, enormous blessings, and gratification in all matters will flow. All things will be taken care of in due time, and according to His will.

The LORD is unconditional, and He is there for us. He is not a “God who is waiting to punish, nor is He watching with bated breath, waiting to slam you against the wall.”  Instead, He is loving, faithful, consistent, and patiently waiting to guide us, and make our paths straight.  Of course all of that will happen in due course, but only…when and IF we trust Him, and give ourselves to Him fully, as it states so clearly in Proverbs 3:5-8 (NKJV)

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;

 In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.

Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and depart from evil.

It will be health to your flesh,
And strength to your bones.

He will direct, lead, touch and heal us, when we go to Him, and turn our lives over to Him.

It’s there, right in His Word!

His Promise is absolute.

He will never disappoint us, nor deter us from gaining peace and attaining happiness.

Sure, sometimes it may look like He isn’t listening…but when God is “silent”  that is when He is working the hardest for us.  Amen!

Have you turned your life over to the LORD?  

“Father, knowing You are in control of my life, and directing me, brings me peace and joy, for with You in my life, no one can be against me, for You are my Savior, my love, and my everything, thank You, in Jesus name, Amen.”
