2 Corinthians 10:5- “Casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God.”
Remember to read “My Utmost for His Highest” for Today
Note- Sometimes in the Christian walk we should fight and sometimes we should stand still and wait for God’s solutions while praying without ceasing.
Stand still and see His Salvation.
Stand still and rest your case!
Stand still and watch transformations
Changed by God’s Holy Grace.
Sometimes life presents competitions.
Life can be stressful to the core.
But following hand in hand with Jesus
Lifts us where eagles might soar.
The choice is ours in each conflict.
Decisions are ours everyday.
Will we stand alone in His Presence,
Or are we impatient in our own selfish way?
Stand still and accept His Salvation.
Standing still is His offer of Grace.
Be alert to His faithful protection
The Savior equips enough for each race.

PONDER - Think about your weakest human frailty. Perhaps you are struggling too hard. Your choice is to let it go, solve it, ignore it, emotionalize it or surrendering it. Try releasing it to God. Journal the differences surrender offers. Journal your journey without that frailty. His strength is made perfect in our weakness.
Dear Lord, Thank You for meeting us at our weakest point. Thank you for Your strength. Thank you that Your time lines are different from ours. Help us to live our lives with eternity’s values in view. Thank you for equipping us daily. There are no surprises to You. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.
