It’s not you

If you fail, do you continue?

Think about what you do. Do you preach? Play? Sing? Teach? If something happens and you can’t do it anymore, what will it be like? What really motivates you to keep going?

That’s exactly what God spoke to me. In my church I work in communication, recording, editing and writing, just like I do here on Bible Offline team.

And the Lord asked me why I keep doing these things and that got me thinking. I write, record, edit, take pictures, but simply because I like it? Or to reflect the Glory of God?

Then, I clearly felt God saying, “It’s not you.” It was never me, because sometimes I didn’t even know how I had done certain things. It was always Him.

So I ask you, if something goes wrong, what do you do? If you fail, do you turn it over to God and let Him do it for you?

Surrendering

We always end up coming back to the same word: SURRENDER. Make this surrender, accept that if you fail, God does it, and even if it doesn’t go wrong, it’s still Him.

Today I invite you to pray by making a commitment, showing that no matter what happens, God remains the main thing in everything you do.

Remembering that you don’t need to pray the same way as I’m going to leave here, after all, each one has their own way of talking to our God, but if you want, I’ll be happy to accompany you.

“Lord, my God and Father, we thank you for this day, for this breath of life.

Father, today I want to give you my gifts and talents. Sometimes I act as if I did and as if it were my merit, but the honor and glory are completely yours.

If I fail, if my voice stops, if I can no longer do what I do, do it for me, because it was never me, but it was always You.

Thank you for continuing to love me despite me and for continuing to use me even though I don’t deserve it.

My life is yours, you can continue to use me for the honor and glory of your name.

I love You, and I pray to You, in the name of Jesus
Amen.”

God blesses,
Ana.
