Rebel

The Lord speaks to Israel, who are still struggling in their faith. They are easily distracted. They take matters into their own hands. They take their eyes off of God. Like me. Here's what God says, what I suppose He is saying to me: "Remember this, fix it in your mind, take it to heart, you rebels. Remember the former things, those of long ago. I am God, and there is no other."

Tomorrow Lee and I visit with Bobby Cremins. We have different ideas about what the meeting will be about. Lee doesn't want him too involved. I want him very involved.

Lord, it's the same old struggle. I want to manage our money more responsibly, but I have a tendency to lose sight of my relationship when I take up that cause. From Your perspective, my support of Lee is equally important. I want a tighter, more controlled budget, but I don't want to undermine Lee. 


Lord, You urge me to look to You for help. I present my challenge to You. It's easy to support Lee, if I can let go of the accountability issues. (i.e. Who is he accountable to, if not me?) We're paying Bobby to sort things out. I pray that Your hand will be in this. I will try to leave it to You.


I pray for Sara. I pray for my professional path.


In Your son's name I pray.
Amen
