Accept Gods Will

S: “You have been deceived by your own pride....even if you soar as high as eagles and build your nest among the stars, I will bring you crashing down,” says the LORD.” Obadiah 1:3-4 NLT

O: Yesterday's devotion, gaining respect by consulting God instead of self. Last nights class, using our decision style to help plan and make decision Gods way. This mornings first reading, commiting to God fully. Giving total submission of our lives that even when we don't get our way, we know it is his will, not ours.  God is making me aware that the positions I have been called too can easily put me in a place where I am manipulating from my pride. Or jumping into things outside of my calling and failing at it becuase it's not what I'm suppose to be doing. I need to stay humbly in my lane or God will bring me crashing down. 

A: I'm overall a perfectionist. Often feeling defeated before I start becuase I feel as if I don't deserve it then I think what if I can't fulfill it to the extent people think I can. Therefore I jump into things I have no experience doing a horrible job but try to do the least I can to keep it together so people can continue to rely on me. It is deter mental to who I am and who God has called me to be to plan and make decisions humbly in accordance to his will. Pride and failure to be the true Liz will lead to destruction. 

P: Your will I live for Abba Father!!!! I surrender all to you oh prince of peace! My dominion is public speaking from a theological and psychological perspective. Anything above and beyond that is not mine to take. I am not called to do everything, I can let go of pride and allow others to help. I can accept Gods will for my life by living in total submission to the call. Give me today the willingness to truly surrender God. I don't want you to have to crash me down. Deliver me from all things not is you. The emotions that all me to feel less when you have told me I am more!!!! I know you love me. Through that love I will build your kingdom. Jesus reign in this place. You are wonderful!!!! I pray this all through the name of Jesus Christ of Navereth, amen.
