Lead Me To Your Heart

I know when the instructions have come from God because of their quiet persistence. But when I begin to weigh the pros and cons, and doubt and debate enter into my mind, I am bringing in an element that is not of God. … Faithfulness to Jesus means that I must step out even when and where I can’t see anything. But faithfulness to my own ideas means that I first clear the way mentally.
-Utmost

I can’t technically see what is to come, but I feel oddly secure in his plan for our future. When I look into this future, I see warmth and joy, and holiness and devotion, great reward and love in true fellowship. 

The Lord desires of me a holy life. He desires of me a sacrificial life. He knows what’s precious to me, like he did what was to Abraham. I rejoice that I am being stretched and grown into a person who finds peace in the midst of an oncoming valley, or what seems to be in my limited conception of life. Peace on the mountaintops, peace in the valley, peace in the middle - what grace.

I only pray that my sensitivity to this grace wouldn’t be heightened in times of testing, but always. That I’d ever be drawn closer to Your heart and that You’d be honored by my life in every state of being.
