The LORD is far from the wicked
but he hears the prayer of the
righteous.
( Proverbs 15:29 *NIV )
Dear Addison,
We may pray that God will handle a problem for us, or to
fulfill a dream we have, while never letting it go for Him to handle.
We instead take it back and try to handle it on our own.
We may then even put all of our trust in another to solve it for
us as well. Now it is written; It is better to trust in
the LORD than to put confidence in man.
( Psalms 118:8 )
So the next time that you ask God to handle something for you,
leave it in God's capable hands, and; Rest in the LORD,
and wait patiently for Him; Do not pull it back
again and try to handle it without Him. ( Psalms 37:7 )
Now this reminds me of a poem that has ministered to me,
and I will share it with you right now. I hope that it ministers to
you as well. Amen.
Broken Dreams
As children bring
their broken toys
with tears for us to mend,
I brought my broken dreams
to God
because He was my friend!
But then instead
of leaving Him
in peace to work alone,
I hung around
and tried to help
with ways
that were my own.
At last I snatched them back
and cried,
"How can you be so slow?"
"My child," He said
"What could I do?
You never did let go."
