Day 5 of 40 Days of Prayer: "Your Way, Lord"

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways; declares the Lord."

Isaiah 55:8

Let's Pray:

Lord, I thank you that you love (____) and want the very best for him. I ask you to help him to understand that your thoughts are not his thoughts and your ways are not his ways. I pray you will help him to learn to relax more knowing that he needs only to follow you and you will make his path straight. In Jesus' name, AMEN.

Well, I don't know about you, but I will often try to help God out. I will let my husband know just what he should and shouldn't be doing. Is it just me or have you also noticed that this does not work? In fact, I have found that it often backfires and produces the opposite of what I had in mind. I have to remind myself of Isaiah 55:8, frequently. I have to remember that God is God and I am NOT. : )

See you tomorrow,
Kristy
