God's way is not often our own

It's always interesting how we think things should be done one way which is often very very different to how they take place. After spending huge amounts of time in prayer and spiritual warfare over a friend's life (that has consequently also meant regular spiritual attacks), it is actually someone else having a greater impact in her life. I honestly struggle with this... considerably. No one but God and I really know the challenges and difficulties and battles I have had to face for this friend not to mention the risks and sacrifices involved. My wicked flesh cries out that I should be the one helping her... me me ME! How hard it is to accept God's will when it doesn't match our own. Amazingly though, the other person who is impacting her, and I, have said we should start praying together for this friend. Maybe... just maybe God has a greater plan and the outcome will far exceed my expectations and the expectations of all involved...

Lord forgive me for my unbelief. You are all knowing and you know the end from the beginning. Help me to trust you bring about your purpose in the way that brings the greatest honour and glory to your wonderful name. Amen.
