Excerpt from my devotional, "Embrace the Morning"
Being open to God's
will is sometimes quite difficult. In our hearts we want to;
however, our minds manipulate us into going the opposite direction.
We need to be cognizant that Satan is always close by and is waiting
for self-will to take control. Once that happens, he is free to
create havoc and discontent in our lives.
To differentiate
between God's will and our own, we are given subtle clues. These
clues can appear as an uneasy feeling in the pit of our stomach or an
odd feeling of impending disaster.
Jesus, self-will
runs riot in my life. It is so easy to take the reins myself
thinking I am in control. Keep me ever mindful that You would never
lead me astray; that you love me and want only what is best for my
life. My Precious Savior,
guide me to follow your word in my thoughts, words and deeds. At
day's end may I count my blessings with love and gratitude.
Have a Blessed Day!
