HOW?

Lately I have been doing a lot of thinking and wondering. Wondering HOW I am going to do some of the things that God has put on my heart. Last night I was reading and it hit me that I don't have to worry about the HOW, but rather just be willing to be faithful to do what I can right now and allow God to work. I must find myself dependent upon Him, not upon my own abilities. (Where's the fun in that - especially if I want to be a part of something God sized)
I find myself too much in the middle of God's plan for me trying to do what God has to do. I have this problem - I like to call it the 'ME' Syndrome. You see, I wouldn't deny that God is the one that I must follow, instead of me trying to lead. I would even go as far as saying that I must trust and follow God for His plans are better, but do I live it out that way!
I need to let go of the HOW and hold on to the promises that God has given to me, to us as His children. When I think of my own children there are thoughts of them trusting me even when they don't know how daddy will do it, they just BELIEVE that I will get it done. When you stop and think about it it's really kind of cool that I don't need to worry about the, "HOW can this be done", so that I can focus on the FAITH of following Christ.

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.

-Matthew 7:11
