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.

Who You Are ~ a proclamation to God

God, I am overcome with Who You Are. You are God. To truly think about who you are causes my heart to swell, my mind to swirl, and my tears to spill forth. For you are God.

God, you are the only God with a mouth that speaks life into existence. You have been faithfully speaking life from the moment you spoke light into the vast void of nothingness.

Today, You are still speaking life into existence. Father, this moment you are speaking life to the unborn. You are speaking life to lost souls. You are speaking life to religion bound hearts. You are speaking life to the brokenhearted. You are speaking life to creation. You are speaking life upon the hearts of missionaries, pastors, teachers, song writers, authors, speakers, parents and upon the mouth of babes. God, you are speaking life, eternally.

In all your speaking, you listen.

There are moments where I cannot comprehend your choice to claim Fatherhood upon all to whom you speak life.

God, Father God, I am a recipient of your choice.

You, Father God, created this concept of Family. Speaking life into individual lives, you then knit hearts together with a connective love that withstands the exhaustion of satan and flesh and the world that surrounds us.

Father, our hearts are full! Filled with your voice of life and your gift of love.

Thank you, God, for Who You Are.

You are God.

You are God who speaks life.

You are God who listens to us.

You are God who sees us.

You are God whose hand holds us.

You are God who walks with us.

You are God who chooses to be our Father.

You are God who forever and always loves us.

You are God.

You are loved by us.

Oh, how YOU are loved!

Lord, I come to you for Love.

What more is there to say?

What more is there to express?

For you and you alone are Love.

I seek after the joys and the happiness.

I grasp for the smiles and the victories.

I lose my sight and then return.

Lord, I come to you for Love.

My child is in your hands.

In Your arms you embrace both my child and me

In Your heart you hold our dreams, different as they may be

In Your will and for your purpose

In Your timing and for your glory

I come to you for Love

At the times of hurt, I come

On the days of sorrow, I come

In the midst of the water, I come

Filled with joy and happiness, I come

You are always there, for your word declares

You are forever here, for your voice whispers

At your feet

Before your throne

Thank you for Your love.

There is always more to say!

There is always more to proclaim!
