…Today, Lord…

…For we who worship by the Spirit of God are the ones who are truly circumcised. We rely on what Christ Jesus has done for us. We put no confidence in human effort…(Phil. 3:3).”

Father, I have been putting confidence in myself. I am trying hard to measure up. I am working to control many parts of my life. Lord, I have forgotten that in You I live and move and have my being (Acts 17).

Precious God – come and fill me. I surrender to you. I acknowledge that everything I am – everything I am not -everything I do – everything I don’t do – Lord, it is all yours. Completely and totally.

I am tired today of trying to hold the pieces together myself. No more. I need YOU, Holy Spirit. This day. I need you to overflow in me with your living water.

I want to overflow on my husband.

I want to overflow on my children.

I want to overflow on my friends.

Everywhere I put my feet, everything I touch, every word I speak – I surrender to you this day.

I can trust you.

You are my confidence!

You are my Jesus!

I love you.
