With today's sunrise...

...comes the fear, unknown, and mystery of yesterday. I don't want to wake up with that dictating my day, so I'm giving it up now.

Today, a whole lot could happen. Family relationships could be reconciled or driven farther apart. Laughter could be made or tears could be shed. Souls could be won for Christ or God-blockades could be made.

I want to wake up remembering that I am a vessel to be held, directed, and used by God Himself. Just as a cup has no will of its own and its only purpose is to be filled, so do I want my life to be.

So tonight, just like a little cup, I'll be held by the strong, sweet hand of my King, empty myself of every fear, need, emotion, hope, and dream and be filled with Everything that is my Maker.

Here I am, Lord. Pick me.
