Very short and to the point this week. As I continue to work my way through "A Praying Life," I'm finding that it truly is transforming my life into one that is routinely interrupted by prayer. The more I pray about the overwhelming things of life, and the special needs life is full of them, the more my view of God's role has changed.
Rather than being one of, "Lord please give ME the strength to do this." it has become one of, "Ok Father, let's do this." HE never intended me to gain strength from Him in order to go off into my calling alone. It has always been about taking HIS hand and doing things with HIM. All week I've had this picture of heading off into the world holding Dad's hand. Whew, what a relief this truth has been for me this week.
John 15:5I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
