Abide

I don’t know about you, but it’s my independence that can keep me from a closer relationship with God. Thinking “I can do this” rather than yielding to God, can distance me from him. And isn’t my “I can do this” attitude really a sin of pride?
Good Thursday morning. May you always abide with our creator.

Lord, keep me humble. Keep me abiding in you, always yielding to your wisdom and love.

After raising a family and then teaching for over 20 years, I retired from full-time work. Now I spend time with family, tap dance, take long walks in nature, read, and write. I have published two stories in Chicken Soup for the Soul books and over a dozen devotions. My current goal is to publish a book of meditations over the gospels and to share my devotional writing on my blog. I hope you enjoy and are inspired.
