Here I Am, Lord: Devotions from Time of Graceनमूना

I Feel Good About What You Helped Me Accomplish I have to admit I was worried, Lord. It was such a big challenge! I wasn’t sure if I was up to it. Remember all those prayers? Of course you do. Nothing escapes your notice or memory. It took such a long time. I admit also that I was worried. I thought maybe I was on my own. But you taught me a lot through this whole thing--you taught me patience, tenacity, and toughness. You made me wait, but you came through for me. I know some of my friends think I did this, but you and I know the truth. “Not to us, O LORD, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness” (Psalm 115:1). This experience will stay with me and fortify me for the next challenge. Please help me remember these days when I am tempted to panic later in my life. Lord, I am thrilled to be useful to you in all your kingdom work. I can’t always figure out what you’re up to, but in hindsight everything seems to fall into place. The older I get, the more I see that you can be trusted to manage everything. Thank you for developing me, growing me, maturing me. Perhaps there is a struggling soul nearby that I can encourage for you?
