A Revelation

This is no new revelation by any stretch. But for me it went from thought to reality. While basking in the Florida sun, listening to everything from Toby Mac to Kari Jobe this thought came to me. "I know what I want to do, but I don't know how to do what I want to do." Now let me clarify so not to confuse anyone who might read this. I have accomplished things I want to do in the past but I can't count how many things I've wanted to do but just couldn't figure out how to make it happen.

The revelation is that I find myself relying more on God than my own strengths. I had become more self relient on the gifts God had given me to serve, instead of the giver of the gifts. So, now I am trying to ask God how to do what He puts on my heart and make sure the thoughts I have in regards to creativity or future planning are truly from Him. The proof is in the pudding, at least that's what I have heard 100's of times growing up in Alabama. The truth is very few people are successful in the gifts and talents God gives us because we just can't accomplish them on our own. God is wanting us to enjoy Him and the process of seeing a good idea to fruition, for His glory and His praise.
