Saying Yes To God


"Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me."
Psalm 51:10-12


Do you find yourself listing the reasons you can't rather than the ways He can? You see it is not our job to accomplish God's will. That responsibility belongs to Him alone. Our job is simply to say yes to whatever specific tasks He puts before us. Then to follow through, one request at a time, with our lives as well as with our mouths: "May it be to me as you have said."

Obeying then simply believing that God will do what He says He will do. Even when it does not seem to make sense.
