Let go

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6

By the time I am done praying about my request I am already mentally trying to answer my own prayer.

Forgive me Father God. I know that I might have some responsibilities in the answer to my prayers but if I just asked you to to help, why am I shouldering the load again? It’s like saying “here carry this” but never transferring the load.

Forgive me Father. Help me let go and trust you.

I am a man. I am an older man. I am a husband and a dad and a grandpa. I am a disciple of Jesus. Because I am a disciple of Jesus much of what I write is about him, and I usually end what I write with a question, do you the reader know that Jesus loves you? He does. He loves us all but he loves you specifically. He loves me specifically. What will you do with that information today?
