I Need To Leave It There

I know where to go when I have a problem. I know who to go to. I know that the Bible says I can boldly approach the throne of grace with confidence, and that I shouldn't be anxious, and that I can give God all of my worries. I know I am supposed to give these things to God, and I used to think that I did that. What I've come to realize is I oftentimes don't give them to God, I just bring them to God. I try to bring things to Him and lay them at His feet, but when I'm done praying, I pick them up and take them with me.

How about you? How are you in this area? If you do this well, what's your secret?

It's like I trust Him enough to pray about it, but then most of the time I just take it out of His hands as soon as I get off my knees. You know what I mean? Tough stuff. I miss you buddy.

BTW, when are you moving?

But he got one for free. Why would he buy yours?
