Are you TELLING God what YOU want?

So this morning, while getting my youngest daughter (4 years old by the way) ready for school; says to me "Mommy I don't want you to do my hair!" I did not respond! A few moments later she begins to go on about how she doesn't like getting her hair done and she wants to leave it the way it is...So I say to her "So you want to go to school with your hair a mess?" Her reply was "Just put it in one ponytail!" Now I could have done the one ponytail but i know that one ponytail does not last very long! So frustrated by this point, my response was "Stop telling me what you want! I am going to do it the way I want to!"

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord . For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. (Isaiah 55:8, 9 KJV)

Children of God, please...Let us stop telling God what "WE" want and just ask for HIS will to be done in every aspect of our lives! He knows what He is doing and what is best for us! Let us not run from His will! Let us not try and hide from His plans for our lives! Although we may not like sitting through all the pain! Although we may be getting antsy, let us rest in The Lord and ask Him for His peace that surpasses all of our understanding, so that we may get through our process, for His Glory and in due time! Lord help us get through our process! SELAH (pause and think about that)!
