ABIDE

My friend Vicki posted the following thoughts on her blog recently. Check out her site here.

It's been said that only God is able to cross off everything on His "to-do" list. Guess the rest of us might as well hang it up:-)

Sometimes He shows me how ridiculous my list has grown, only to tear it up and whisper a reminder: Abide. That's all He asks. 'Tis this abiding I need to even know His will; the rest will follow. Playing beat-the-clock in my own flesh is stressful, but learning to move according to His enablement brings peace.

Bonus: It's way more productive to do His will rather than mine. Perfectionism never wins brownie points with God anyway.
