The Journey Begins
So the journey begins. I Say A Prayer For Me: The One Woman Show. The script is complete now..
Show me, Lord.
Psalm 127:1 Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain. (New International Version)
Soloman learned that truth--sealed in his heart by the finger of God--and recorded for all time so that we can receive the wisdom it contains--if we so choose.
And so, I chose to apply this truth--even to my books, my plays, my life.... Unless the LORD builds this one woman show, I build in vain.
What is it for you? You fill in the blank. "Unless the LORD builds this _________, I build in vain." And if you are seeking God's face for that thing -- STILL apply the principle to your "not yet." "Unless the LORD builds A VISION for My life, I build in vain." And then whether you know or don't know, fall to your knees and humbly say, "Lord, show me and make it so plain that even I will understand."
Lord God Almighty, we look to YOU for everything we need to do what we believe You birthed us to do. Continue to order our steps, grant us favor with You, people, and institutions. Grant us Your wisdom and patience. Build this ______, Father. Help us to let our light so shine among men, women, and children that they may see our good works and glorify YOU. Provide everything we need to realize the vision including the faith that we will need to press our way through whatever obstacles may arise. More than anything, we want YOUR perfect will to be done in this and every area of our lives. We ask this in Jesus' Name. Amen. So be it. So it is!
I love you--sight seen and unseen. And I hope to chat with you again next month. In the meantime, God is blessing you, right now.
