"Gaze at GOD, glance at the need, and trust it to HIS all-wise, all-loving care." -Sylvia Gunther
How quickly I forget this. I can oh so many details about the problem, but I keep forgetting to look up. YOU are the One who can supply the answer - whatever that may be. But if I only gaze at the problem, I will become discouraged, angry, frustrated. Keep pulling my eyes upward, LORD. Open my eyes, that I may see as YOU do.
YOU have a plan for all that is going on now. YOU have a resolution to the conflict that is ensuing. May YOUR will prevail and not man's. YOU have the ability to change the hearts of those who are wandering now. YOU have the ability to knowledge and wisdom I am looking for with my health issues. YOU can make all things new. YOU can fix what is broken. YOU can make that which is weak strong.
May it be so!
And, LORD, as we return to Sonlight tomorrow, I pray for YOUR blessing upon it. I pray YOU can use it to open the eyes of my children to the world outside of this house. May it create a passion for the lost. May Emi not be overwhelmed, but may she be able to create coping skills to learn what she needs to learn. May Eli's insatiable mind be satisfied, and may Erynn be filled as well. Help me to manage it all. May I not get overwhelmed but take it one thing at a time. Show me how to best deal with Boogie in the midst of it all. Take it and use it for YOUR glory. |
