| This is why I don't ask you to do anything! |
I guess I'll use my own mistake as the topic of the post today. Don't you hate it when you're depending on someone for something, and they don't come through for you?
Far too many times I have been let down. Which is probably why I choose to do things on my own a lot. I'd rather be swamped and rushing around than to have to hope that someone does their portion.
Yet, there is some One in our life who we can depend on always. He's always there and never shirks on His responsibility. God is an ever present help for us.
Still, how many times do you find yourself turning to the Lord after you've exhausted every other option you have? How often do you find yourself praying in desperation for direction after every plan you've enacted has failed?
It's a great thing that God's mercies are new every morning. (Lamentations 3:22, 23) And it also helps that He loves us so much. Only a merciful, loving God could deal with our behavior.
When issues arise and you need direction, assurance, or even just a listening ear... don't neglect to speak with your Heavenly Father. He loves you more than anyone else, and He has the power, knowledge, and ability to help you more than anyone else as well. He is definitely worthy to be the first in line, so why not let Him enjoy that privilege?
Verse of the Day: God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1
