Must I understand the elements that construct life in order to put shoulder to plow and love to heart? Is it a requirement that each relationship be conducted in a manner that it is precise, with a sense of value and purpose in order to Love in God’s Peculiar fashion? Is it necessary to forgo those things attributed to “well that’s just the way I am get over it” in order to accept and become the transformed creature of God’s reconfigure? Must we see ourselves fully in the identity and perspective of God’s understanding in order to launch forward upon the divine quest determined for each of us? Well, Yes.

When I am done complaining about what I cannot do for God, then maybe, as I sigh, it will dawn upon this daft intellect that I never could do any of it from the outset. It is the expectation born of my carnality that marries me to a limited boundary of imagination, moderated by my incapacity to manage the outcomes. When the results are of God’s to deliver, how may I manage or become successful in reaching destinations that I have predetermined which by nature are sans the miraculous intervention of Spirit? I cannot get there because I don’t know where there is.  And I don’t know the road to get there nor do I have the power and authority to breach the immeasurable gaps or necessary skill to create the interrelationships required to build the bridge I never imagined would lead from here to there. Lengthy but you get the point.

Father, this thing you want done, I cannot do, but I will still accomplish these tasks, as Your Spirit fills me with understanding, perspective, peace, courage and equipment in the perfect timing for its completion. Surrender is a word that was counter intuitive to this man, until I understood that within that surrender I found peace and successes beyond my imagination and scope. The new man will be ready when it is time to move. Whether that is the case at present is purely within your evaluation and counsel. Here I am Lord, this man, Send Me.  I Love and Praise You for all that You are, especially for that which I am not. In Jesus’ Mighty Name.
