Count It All Done


Sweet God,

You are wise and good. You are so far ahead of us. And yet we have such a hard time trusting in that wisdom. We still turn to our own ways. Our own methods. Our own interpretations.
You are faithful and holy. We often overlook and underestimate both of these qualities in you. Sometimes we don’t trust your faithfulness because we forget your holiness. It is against your holiness for you to be unfaithful. Your promises are based on both.
Today, Father, help us to remember how wise and good and faithful and holy you are. You are worthy to be praised because of these, but we can count done all you have told us because of these.
Count done the fact that you said you would never leave or forsake us.
Count done the fact that you will never allow anything to separate us from you and your love.
Count done the fact that you will orchestrate and work all things together in order for us to be conformed to the image of Jesus.
Count done that your Son stands and intercedes for us.
Count done that your Holy Spirit will teach us truth and convict of us of the things that would hinder our relationship with you.
Count done that you, YOU, will make US holy.
Count done that you will provide what we need to become what you ask.
We praise you. You are a Count it all done God—you tell us love is more than hearing, it is doing what we hear.
Your love does.
Today. Today enable us to Count it all done.
Amen
