You see the phrase “no matter what” is what spells the
difference and what makes it difficult. I find it easy following
God as long as it suits me. But when it no longer aligns with
I think things should be then that’s when all the battle takes
place—in the place of my desires and ideals—the throne of
my heart.
Forgive me God that there are still idols left within me. It
may not seem as bad as riches, power and ambition or even
an addiction. It robs me of You nevertheless. My own
willfulness and want of control lessens Your influence in my
life. My own coping of escape in whatever form dismisses
Your wisdom and diminishes Your role as my Father, my
Intimate and my Friend. And I know You will not force away
from me that which I am unwilling because you respect my
own will and freedom to choose. May I be aware of that
which I miss in not surrendering. I miss Your love, Your
surprise, and the adventures that You would have taken me
into, had I only the courage to just let You lead me.
