When Things Seem Too Big

Dear Father,

Things seem too big for me. Selah.

I let that truth slip from my lips. My words want to quickly run circles around my vulnerability, yet my heart longs for the confidence you promise as I trust and obey the thing you have called and equipped me to do for you. Trusting you with my words, I sit quiet, contemplative, eager to hear your voice.

Let Your strength to be seen in my weakness.

Let Your wisdom bind itself upon my heart.

Let Your comfort hold me in the midst of today’s step.

Let Your Truth shine it’s light brightly over my vulnerable truth.

Yes, I wait upon you, Lord, for all the above. Selah.

Father God, my eyes see the next step ahead of me – although I cannot behold the full path that awaits my steady stride. Help me to step in the fullness of your light and guide me in the surety of your Way. Thank you for allowing me to see the ground beneath my foot that I may not slip or stumble upon the Rock.

For I know that I stand upon a sure Foundation.

I stand upon the Cornerstone of all things under heaven.

I stand upon the Rock that cannot be shaken -not even by the gates of hell.

I stand upon you, Jesus Christ, the very Eternal, Ever-faithful Son of God!

Yes, I trust you, Lord, for every step before me. Selah.

Sweet Father, thank you for being alive! For having ears to heart my words. For having eyes to see my heart, my path, my weakness, my strength, my struggle and my smile. Oh, how you know me throughly! Oh, how you love me and trust me to do your will in my life today!

May I love you and trust You to do your will in my life Today!

Selah

Finally, brothers,

whatever is true,

whatever is honorable,

whatever is just,

whatever is pure,

whatever is lovely,

whatever is commendable,

if there is any excellence,

if there is anything worthy of praise,

think about these things.

What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me

– practice these things,

and the the God of peace will be with you!

-Philippians 4:8-9

Paul from prison when things were seemingly too big for him.
