I Forget He Is Lord
I go through my days frustrated, lonely and upset. It is a wonder to me that I am still alive in many ways. Driving alone is something to make a person go mad. So many things I try to accomplish on my own. I have so many responsibilities and all of them I try do all by myself. I read this earlier today and my jaw just about hit the ground:
Brother, are you fainting in prayer? Look up. Your blessed Advocate has already claimed your answer, and you would grieve and disappoint Him if you were to give up the conflict in the very moment when victory is on its way to meet you. He has gone in for you into the inner chamber, and already holds up your name upon the palms of His hands; and the messenger, which is to bring you your blessing, is now on his way, and the Spirit is only waiting your trust to whisper in your heart the echo of the answer from the throne, “It is done.” –A. B. Simpson
…”waiting your trust” is what pierced me. How long will it take before I trust in the Lord? How long will it be when I finally give my Life whole-heartedly to Christ? I try so hard to do it on my own and only end up biting my nails off and failing in the end and inevitably distancing myself further from the Father. Prayer and faith. Prayer and faith.
