“Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun.”
– Psalm 37:5,6
Friends, if you’re an achiever, or a business owner, or if you have big dreams in your heart, I want you to know that the best way to accomplish things for God is to hold on to them loosely. Don’t be married to your outcomes; simply do the best that you can and trust the Lord to work out what He desires in and through the results. Be smart, but also be patient and consistent, and you will do great things in His Kingdom. Don’t live life from a place of lack, but understand that God will take care of your every need; it just may not look the way you expect it to or happen on your timetable. When you try to control your outcomes by holding on to what you want, you are embracing worry and fear, and it can cause you to miss out on many of the blessings He places in your life. Trust that the Lord will take care of you and all that concerns you. He is a good Father and His timing is always perfect. He will cause everything to work out for your good, so hold loosely to your desired outcomes and trust Him to do exceedingly more than you could ever ask or imagine! |
Prayer
God, thank you for bringing your best to my life as I hold loosely to the outcomes that I desire. I know you will take care of all that concerns me.
Reflection
What things in life do you find it difficult to hold onto loosely? What might help you to entrust your outcomes to God?
