While continuing in the reflection from yesterday's blog about removing your shoes I decided to do it. I took them off and stood in my living room while praising God and asking for his supreme control of my life. I realize for me this will be an ongoing moment by moment task. I decided in order to stay on track I would keep Him ever before my eyes, especially when I am tempted to take control back.
Have you ever totally let go and dropped the reins? To me it feels like what I think falling off a cliff must be. It is a very strange sensation but I am trusting God that everything will work out for me. He is my protection.
So can you let go? Can you commit to taking off your shoes and while standing on holy ground praise Him? I think that the outcome will be better than we could imagine. Try it with me. If you are reading and willing to give yourself over to His holiness and total control, please write back and tell me now you feel and blessings for obedience. I'd love to hear how it is working in your life.
Lord, it is so hard to let go, really let go and give everything over to you. I am making the declaration to worship your holiness, trusting in You for guidance, provision, protection and most of all peace. Amen
So while standing on the cliff edge I slip off my hiking boots and socks. I wiggle my toes and then stand up to proclaim the Lord's goodness. I give Him me and everything that entails. I trust that for the next 322 days of this 'broken' journey and in to the days beyond He will be guiding me. May I truley come to know Him even deeper as my passion soars like the eagles.
