Getting Specific
Lately I've been praying for a very specific move in my life. Today as I was praying this particular prayer as I was walking through the halls of school, I was stopped very abruptly by the thought, Boy I am being very picky and very specific about what I want God to do. It's causing me a bit of pause even now. I know we are to be specific in prayer and God already knows what I'm thinking anyway so why not just say it, but I don't know that what I'm praying for is really the best thing. I have my own vision about what I want and I try to be connected to God so that His will becomes my will. However, today I am struck by the thought that I have a very particular request. It is only particular in one way, and the prayer could be answered in multiple ways, but I am being very specific with God. I'm just not sure how I'm feeling about all of that right now. It seems a little unfaithful while at the same time stepping in faith through prayer. I am telling God what I want, but not expecting Him to move in any particular way. Hmm...just thinking on this today.
