CONFESSIONS of a TOOL!

Today I am relishing in the fact that we serve a GOD who is omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent, and closer than a brother.  Too many times we get caught up with in our daily lives and what we PERCEIVE as being important and fail to give GOD his due.  Your family and friends can and WILL dissappoint and do things that we do not approve of.

GOD gives us a limited amount of intelligence (I think mine is more limited than most) to get through life.  Sometimes others intelligence leads them in ways I do not understand.  I WANT to be able to help, but GOD does not need my help most of the time.  Sometimes HE allows me to be used of HIM, but the hardest thing HE has taught me is to give HIM time to work.  If HE leads someone down a road that seems to be one that is "NOT THE BEST", then HE may be teaching them a lesson!  GOD has enough to do without overcoming my good intentions.

Sometimes a yard rake can be GREAT to sweep up leaves.  Most of the time it hangs in the shed.  We only pull it down when it is needed.

Dear Lord, help me to be more sensitive to YOUR leadership and direction when I desire to intervene in other's lives.  Help me to realize that YOU do not need my help.  And when YOU are ready for me to be used of YOU that I will be AVAILABLE for what YOU intend and nothing more.  AMEN!
