Father God it is amazing to read of Your relationship with Abraham and how You promised to bless every nation through him. It is hard to imagine what it would be like to hear You speak or for You to communicate directly to me in a vision. It is surprising to read through the old testament and see people who have interactions with You question Your sovereignty. You lead the Jews out of Egypt by parting the Red Sea. You were a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night and still they worshiped other gods. Abraham sleeps with his servant to give himself a son. He doesn't wait for You to fulfill Your promise. Yet You are faithful and You still give him the son You intended. How much of my life is like this? My life is full of split second decisions. I haven't shown much patience in anything. How can I break myself of this pattern. It seems clear it is my downfall. Father I ask that You help me take more time in careful consideration of the life You have made me a steward of. I ask that You grant me wisdom in choosing a path that follows after Your heart. Father please show me what has to be changed to get my life on track.
for You are the true shepherd
