Gotta Have Faith

Will I believe you when you say
Your hand will guide my every way
Will I receive the words You say
Every moment of every day
Well I will walk by faith
Even when I cannot see
because this broken road
Prepares Your will for me
--"Walk by Faith" Jeremy Camp

"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all of your heart." Jeremiah 29:11-13

It's such a comfort to know that my Father has a plan for me. A plan that is greater than I could ever ask or imagine. Yet, daily I try to go on with my own plan for my life. I'm constantly trying to take control and, being the stubborn being that I am, constantly falling flat on my face for trying to go at things alone. It's amazing how different a relationship or a decision can be when God's hand is in it. He has truly shown me this week that I am weak without Him and I cannot do this on my own. This is my struggle. Faith. Pray for me, that I will have faith in God's plan for me rather than taking matters into my own hands. I don't want to settle for mediocrity. I want to glorify God in all that I do. 'Preciate the prayers in advance! On that, I'm out like the weakest link...GOODBYE!
