I woke up this morning, and prayed for God's strength and wisdom for the day. It's Martin Luther King day, and we're out of school, so the day appears wide open. Without warning, the words to a later verse of "A Mighty Fortress is Our God" ran through my mind. The verse reads:
Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing; were not the right man on our side; a Man of God's own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus it is He! Lord Saboath His name; From age to age the same, and he must win the battle.
I must confess to doing so many things in my own strength. No wonder I sometimes feel lost!
The battle is the Lord's! Forgive me, Lord. God must have wanted to remind me that today is His, not mine.
