I’m trying to trust God today and not rush in anything I do or say.
Such a challenging thing to do, to just trust, believe and to God stay true.
So many times, I just won’t believe, if one mishap occurs, I fail so miserably.
I fail to stop, pray and wait for God to show me which path to take.
I fail to pause and quietly listen to the loving and guiding words coming from him.
When trouble does suddenly brew, I tense up tight wondering, “What should I do?”
In my anxious and frantic state I might cry out, “Now, what? Who made this mistake?”
So I fume to God’s dismay refusing his tender nudge to accept his wiser way.
So often I fail to understand God’s love and his gentle guiding hand.
I fail to joyfully gaze and see, his fatherly eyes silently watching me.
I fail to believe and know that he’s determined where my path should go.
I fail to sit so quietly and just let his perfect calming peace come rest in me.
But today, I am trying hard to keep my eyes closely focused on the Lord
Therefore I am trying to trust God today and not rush in anything I do or say.
That’s the easiest but hardest thing to do. Easy cause it takes a lot of pressure off of ourselves but hard because giving up control is the scariest thing! http://ohfuzzandshizz.wordpress.com/

Yes, it is easy and hard. It seems to be easy as long as the path I am following is going the way I think it should go or the way I want it to go. But as soon as an unexpected turn shows up then, as illustrated by this poem, I often fall down. I need to do better at accepting life’s unwanted surprises!!
