Ok Lord. I’m just going to say it out loud, the thing you aren’t supposed to say. I don’t ask for your guidance more because I’m afraid you are going to tell me to be a missionary in Africa or something. And I hate being hot and I like my stuff and well, quite frankly it feels like it would be hellish. I know this is childish. And I know this is a total betrayal of who you are. I know you want me to use the things I have and love to serve you. I know you are kind and compassionate and a complete gentleman letting me say yes or no. But this is my fear, that I will ask for help and you will break me leg to teach me to be strong or something. I know it’s a complete lie but this is the fear that my sin offers me. Please forgive me. And yes, please guide me into your path of eternal love and righteousness.
