I feel like I'm building a cage around myself. I want to be free and go as you lead, but as I get older there are more and more things that I should think and worry about. Am I being irresponsible or does this thought come because I am still unable to lay it all down?
God, because you are not in a box... I don't want to be in a box. Obviously, I'm just a human being and you are God. I am limited and you are infinite. But if you are calling me... I'm going to step out of those boundaries because Your will be done. This is a statement of submission, obedience, and surrender... but most importantly "Your will be done" is a stating of the truth. So infinite God, give me the faith and courage to embrace this truth and know that you God, will make the impossible things happen while I will bear witness and participate.
I will also bear witness to your provisions, Provider God. You know how to give good gifts to me and those I love, those I am worried about. Continue to prove Yourself to me. Though it says in The Sciptures not to test You, God... you were kind, mericiful, and generous to Gideon. You bolstered his courage through acts of miracle and dreams. God, have mercy on your servant. My faith is weak and I need your stregthening.
God, I pray that Tanzania will be one of many opportunities to serve you. I don't want to miss out on even one because I was afraid or because I did not trust. I don't want to get distracted by the noise of 'the things I should be doing or worried about', and not hear you calling. My only responsibility is to believe and obey. Give me the wisdom and intimacy to learn your voice and to move ONLY when YOU call.
