“As the heavens
are higher than the earth, God’s work in your life is bigger than the story
you’d like that life to tell.
“His life is
bigger than your plans, goals, or fears. To save your life, you’ll have to lay
down your stories, and minute by minute, day by day, give your life back to
Him.”

S. Miller, “Letters to a Young Mormon” (2014) p 17-18
I pleaded with you on bended knee
My fears to dissolve.
You sat in silence
Hoping I would give You
what You yearned
the most to own;
My self-will,
My hesitance to relinquish control.
In the end I gave it up
And
found solace in Thy soul.
Yes
,You said,
Now
you understand.
I
paved the way,
In
Gethsemane long ago.
