Tuesday's Verse of the Day Devotional

Good morning! Have you ever found yourself trying to tell God how to answer your prayers? Telling Him exactly what you want, how you want it and when you want it; as if He doesn't know what's best? I know I have, oh foolish man that I am!

Have you ever argued with God about how He answered your prayers in a way you didn't like, want or ask for; as if He isn't perfect in all of His ways? We have to understand that God sees a much bigger picture than we do. He knows more than all of humanity will ever learn in a billion years.

Our job is to trust Him and let Him be Lord. I don't always understand or like what He decides is best, but I have to let go of my thoughts, my ways, my desires, my plans, my will and my pride and let Him have His way. He's never given any of us a reason not to trust Him.

God has never failed us even when our understanding of His ways have. Learn to trust Him and seek His face in times of doubt. Believe He knows best and does what is in your best interest. He wants you to be successful in living for Him. Let His sovereign wisdom rule over you so that every day, through His ways, thoughts and leading, you can always make a great day!
