But I Love You.

This last year has been one incredible journey! The Lord is so gracious in teaching me. He helps me grow in ways I never thought possible. I'm amazed at the lessons He has planned out for me. I would like share one with you that He taught me today.

Recently, the Lord told me to just allow Him to decide what I do in everyday life. Like when I should do the dishes, laundry, vacuum etc.

That was a huge thing for me to surrender my control over to Him. He wants me to walk with Him hand and hand as His little child. To let my Heavenly Papa worry about the menial tasks of my day.

While making breakfast this morning, my 3 yr son wanted to help me. I was making eggs, so I really did not want his help. He insisted that he help me. Against my wishes he grabbed an egg and you can guess what happened next. Yes, there was egg on my floor. My well meaning son stood there as I told him to step away. He said, " But Mommy, I love you." He was really only trying to help.

Right then the Lord Jesus spoke to me. He said, "When you try to help me, and I haven't given you the okay...you make a mess." "Follow ME my little child...I'II take care of the rest." 

How many times I have done something out of love only to have made of mess of things? I have so much hope for the days to come as I continue to learn to follow Jesus for everything.
