Just Be Held
Happy Friday to you! I hope you had a wonderful and fun Fourth of July. Today, I want to encourage you to be still and know that He is God. Have you ever thought you had it all together only to find out that you really didn’t? Does life seem to overwhelm you from time to time? Have you ever felt like you’re doing your best to live this Christian life, but it seems you keep coming up short? If you answered yes to either of these questions, today is BREAKTHROUGH DAY for you. Here’s the thing. We think God needs help. We think we have all the answers for our lives. We work it out in our brain how things should go and when it doesn’t happen according to our plan, we fall apart. Well, God never intended for us to direct our own path. He said trust in Him with all our heart and not rely or settle on our way of doing things.
But in everything we do seek Him, ask Him and He’ll tell us which way to go (Proverbs 3:5-6). So you see, all you have to do is switch roles. No more directing. Just follow the script for your life. Just be still and know that He is God. Know that He wants to cradle you in His arms, not have you holding on to one of His fingers. Settle it today. Confess: Today is the day that I allow God to be God. I will follow the path He has already prearranged for me. When in doubt, I’ll ask. No more hanging on His fingers. I’m going to be held by God. God Wants Me Whole and I’m getting whole by the Minute. Until next week, be blessed and held by God!
