My To Do List... or God's?

4:00 am... Me Awake staring at my To Do list

The good news is that it is shrinking! The pad of paper is full of black scratches of tasks completed. Yet, I leave tomorrow with the Early Team for Mexico and there are still a few things that aren't scratched off including my personal suitcase! As I contemplate the list, I wonder if each and every thing that made the list made it because I wanted it there or because God Commissioned it to the list? As I was reading my Bible this morning I read this:

Isaiah 42: 5-7

This is what God the Lord says---

He who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it:

I the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a LIGHT for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness

I am the Lord; that is my NAME!

Amazing! God isn't interested in a To Do List, He is interested in me and every member of this Mexico Outreach Team 2012 because God is going to open the eyes of the blind, free the captives from Prison, and release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness!

He will take hold of our hands and will make us to be a covenant for the people and a LIGHT for the Gentiles!

My To Do list or God's?
