Note to self

Unless the Lord builds the house, They labor in vain who build it; Unless the Lord guards the city, The watchman stays awake in vain.  —Psalm 127:1

It’s not me.  It’s not my ideas.  It’s not my methods.  It’s not my perfection.  It’s not my wisdom.  It’s not my talents.  It’s not my successes.

It’s not me.  It’s not my insufficiencies.  It’s not my weaknesses.  It’s not my inferiority.  It’s not my fear.  It’s not my flaws.

No matter how much I might sometimes think that my efforts, whether seemingly enough or spectacularly inadequate, determine the end result of anything, the reality is that nothing will stand in my life apart from His divine orchestration.

Lord, help me set my eyes on You.  Let my heart be Your heart, and my will submit to Yours in all things.  May I always, always know that who I am in You is enough and that nothing I try to do apart from You will ever prosper.  God, be glorified in this life.
