STOPPED IN MY TRACKS
Today's reading: Isaiah 1-6
"You furnish lovely music and wine at your grand parties; the harps, lyres, tambourines and flutes are superb! But you never think about the Lord or notice what he is doing." Isaiah 5:12 NLT
Guilty as charged, Lord.
Thank you for pointing out another area where Your mighty work is required to make me into who You have created me to be--and to shine with Your image, not one I've created for myself.
You know me so well.
I rush into things. I attempt to do my best. I plan, re-plan and plan some more. I organize to the millisecond. I...
I...
I...
I... am the problem.
I don't pause long enough to think about what You want, where You are at work, what will bring the most glory and honor to You.
I am sorry.
I am embarrassed.
I am so amazed that You love me enough to bring this to my attention--and offer to work on my heart.
I want to throw the 'parties' in Your honor, not in my own.
I want to see where You are doing mighty things and join You.
I want to serve as You allowed Your Son to serve--even in the shadows where it's not seen.
I want to seek You out in all that I do!
