More than Anything I want Your ways....

More than anything, I want God's ways....truth be told, that is not always the case. Many times, I want my own ways. I want dreams, goals, expectations, schedules, and life in general to go the way I want it to go. I want my plans to go according to my plans. I expect my day to go as I expected.  I desire my goals to be accomplished by the deadline I desired....but there is one problem with all of this. What if my wants, wishes, expectations,  dreams, desires,  goals, and plans collide with God's plan? What if His ways are not my ways? Ouch! 

There comes a time in the Christian life that each of us must make a decision....will we choose God's ways or our ways. Will we trust Him when His ways don't line up with our own? Will we follow Him when we don't have all the answers laid out in front of us? Will we surrender and simply Trust and Obey? 

More than anything I want to say YES to God every single time. More than anything, I desire to live my life for Him. More than anything, I want to draw closer to Him. 

So, more than anything...I want His ways more than my own ways.

Time and time again, He has proved Himself trustworthy. 

Time and time again, He has proved His ways are right. 

Time and time again, He has proved His ways are best. 

He is worthy of my trust, obedience, and loyalty. So today, I choose to take another step closer to Him and say...more than anything, I want your ways...not mine, Yours, Lord!
