His Way

Today I read this bible verse:

Psalm 18:30
God's way is perfect. All the LORD's promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection.

Again!
His way is perfect.
Again!
HIS. WAY. IS. PERFECT.
PERFECT.

I don't know why today, but that hit me like a ton of bricks.  How many times I've tried to go it on my own. How many ideas I've tried to make work.  How many plans have I made.  How many dreams have I dreamed and goals I've written down.  Countless.  And to be honest, yes sometimes they've turned out good or alright.  But never perfect.  Not unless I've turned to abba, and asked him to reveal His ways.

How should I do this?
What's the best way?
What are you thinking?
Will you share with me your ideas?
Will you show me your heart?
Will you guide and direct my footsteps today?

The best part is, when I've asked Him to show me: He has.  He is so faithful.

I know these questions excite my Heavenly Father.   I know he can hardly wait for me to ask Him for his help, to show me His ways and His ideas.  I  mean, c'mon, His ways are PERFECT.  They're the BEST.  His ways are much more brilliant, rewarding and perfect than any plan I could ever conjure up.

He wants to surprise us.  He wants to lavish His gifts on us.  He wants to walk beside us.  He wants to fill us with His love and peace.  And He wants to whisper to us His perfect ways.

And yes, His ways are perfect. But this doesn't mean:
Your life looks perfect or you look perfect.

What it means is:
When you yield your ways for His perfect ways(will), your life will reflect Him, YOU will reflect Him.

I am going to continue to repeat the verse to myself.

I'm going to try and start my mornings with those questions and listen to the voice of God.

I'm excited to see all the great things He'll do, go the places He'll lead and to see a continual transformation of myself and my life that begins to look more and more like my Heavenly Father and His ways.

Matthew 7:11
So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask him.

He wants to impart to you good and perfect gifts.  He wants to show you his perfect ways, but, you have to ASK.

I ask you to join me on this challenge to seek the Fathers ways, in all things, every single day.

P.S, I wasn't going to write a blog about this bible verse.  "I" had my own ideas/topics for what I thought I was going to write about. Obviously HE had a different idea, LOL!!!
