Not On My Own

“I am counting on the Lord; yes, I am counting on him.  I have put my hope in his word” ( Psalm 130:5 NLT)

Lord,
Another day for me to lean on You.
Another morning allowed me.
Another day gift-wrapped in a beautiful sunrise.
Another twenty-four hours of opportunities, choices and obstacles.
Another shift of seeing how little I can accomplish and how much You amaze me.

I am counting on you, Lord—for everything.
I am not, will not, cannot do this day on my own.
All my hope is in You.
All I cannot accomplish rests in your abilities.
All I hope to dream about is held in your heart.
All I am meant to be is in Your plan.
All I can do is wrapped up in the power I draw from the relationship I seek with You.

Yes, Lord, I’m counting on you.
And You’re counting on me, too—aren’t you?
