"Have you not known? Have you not heard?The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;
his understanding is unsearchable.
He gives power to the faint,
and to him who has no might he increases strength.
Even youths shall faint and be weary,
and young men shall fall exhausted;
but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint."
-Isaiah 40: 28-31
Father, thank you for being in complete control! How foolish is man to think that we have any say in the way of the world? You are the creator; the one who spoke all existence into being; the one who understands all the workings of the world, both good and evil; and you are the one who will bring peace to the world when you return! Lord, may I seek wisdom from your Word, and may I not try to be in control of my life. May I humbly submit to your direction and your will, even when I don't understand or like where you are taking me. I trust that you are only doing what is Good and that you are making true on your promise to mold me into a person more like yourself. Lord, may I find joy in the waiting and the discipline. May I seek you out and tell you all my thoughts; though you know them all. May I express the desires of my heart, but may I feel the desire to do your will, wherever that leads, more than any other desire! And Lord, may I walk with perseverance and not grow weary! Thank you for loving me as a father!
In Christ's all knowing name, Amen!
