it's tough to keep track of what i depend on.
i have a list of plans:
plan a, plan b, plan c...
always something to back up the plan preceding it so i don't feel "out of control".
but these plans are really only illusions,
and this gets shoved in my face as often as God remembers to show love to me.
He doesn't like me depending on anything other than Him,
and rightly so:
there is nothing outside of Him that can stand on its own.
when i trust in something that lacks a proven perfect track record --
which seems to be everything, last i checked
-- i set myself up to be let down.
my Daddy disciplines those He loves.
not just when we mess up, but when we need to learn self-discipline.
the fruit of the Spirit, self-control.
He loves me & hurts when i choose another thing to lean on.
something inferior to Him.
how illogical to lean on something less dependable, eh?
so today i'm declaring that i'm going to put my trust in what works.
want to join me?
(hint: it's not money or career.)
