What's Wrong With Human Effort?

Human effort will only give us human results.  If we are looking for supernatural, God-sized things to happen, we must look past our own fingertips.  Although it may seem like foolishness to us to sing and pray and praise God instead of "doing something" sometimes we just have to let go and trust that God's plans and ways are much higher than ours.
Psalm 86:11
Teach me your ways O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name.

I love this post! So, so true.

I saw your comment and prayer request on Michelle's blog. I wanted you to know that I lifted up a prayer on your behalf. This request is also my own heart's cry. To go deeper still with Him.

Blessings,
Stacie

Hi Bobbi, I have been and will continue to pray for you. I put your request in my little prayer book. The Lord also put you on my heart in the wee hours of the morning. I love your request! It is dear to my heart, as I have felt that physical ache for Him, and still do. He promises that if we seek Him we will find Him! Believe it!

BTW, loved this little post, spoke right to my heart today!

Keep in touch.
