Daily Thought - July 7th, 2006 - Your Will Be Done
This section takes on more meaning today than normal. I wrote yesterday, and you can read about it in the article below, about my grandfather. This is a difficult time right now. Everytime the cell phone rings, you wonder if it’s “the call.” You want to know when it’s going to happen. And if you’re human, you can’t help but ask God, why it has to hurt so badly.
Man, how many times I tend to think that my way is the best way. How many times I tend to think that my timing is the best timing.
I am asking God to teach me to pray with sincerity “Your Will Be Done.” I have to be honest and say that my natural bendt says not to. What I want to do naturally, is have things my way in my timing. But, God’s teaching me and proving to me, that His way, His timing, His will, is what’s best.
Lord, help me trust that. Help my brothers and sisters all over the world that have chosen to follow You with this truth: “Your Will Works!”

Hey. We haven’t talked in like forever. Do you remember that one song we sang in children’s church after Hillary died? The one by Wayne Watson? I will keep you in my prayers. I remember what it felt like when my Great Grandmother died. I was at camp when she did. Sometimes God gives you little things to think back on and laugh. For my great grandmother, it was grits and the way I found out she died. My mom was watching a neighbor kid when she went to pick me up from the church. I asked her how grandma was doing. Sean stopped drinking his soda, looked at me and said Oh she died and went back to drinking his soda. I didn’t find it funny then, but looking back now, I do. Oh, she died, but I will see her again. She is just in a MUCH BETTER place than I am right now. Well, you are in my prayers and I hope that all goes well. TTYL.
