Humble Yourself

on behalf of august 18, 2015

a fool doesn't take advice from anyone.  a fool thinks he can do it all alone.  a fool doesn't realize that you have every best way outlined for us and someone knows the answer so long as we would ask.  a fool doesn't seek you.  a fool is looking in all the wrong places.
on the other hand, the lord is the beginning of all knowledge.  you, God, are the source of everything i could possibly need to know, or hope for.  You know me and my future.  You know what's best for me, and I hope that i run in precisely that direction.  You are the one who saved me from things i had no clue about.  you are all powerful, and if you wanted the mountains to move, they would move.  if you wanted for the next coming to come all you would need to do is make it happen with you thoughts.  without your thoughts even.  before you move your finger or open your mouth to command the world to stop.  it doesn't matter because you are the lord and king of it all and you are my holy Father.  you are the only one who can truly lend to my "best" direction as i press on this path.

thank you for giving me a second chance and showing me that first impressions aren't always real.  thank you for reminding me that other people are cool and not necessarily snooty.  thank you for showing me that i was wrong.  thank you for humbling me.  thank you for an incredible past three/four weeks.  thank you for teaching me about people.  thank you for teaching me how to handle people when they're too much to handle.  thank you for the grace and mercy you show me everyday.
