"I Can Do It God"

Psalm 19:12-13 Who can discern his errors? Forgive my hidden faults. 13 Keep your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then will I be blameless, innocent of great transgression.

At times I find myself thinking, "I can do it God, thanks but I can take it from here." Maybe not so much telling God that verbally but through my actions or lack of action on my part to depend on Him. Willful sin is when I am confident that I can do whatever God has called me to do and that I have what it takes to do it. When I act on my own and ride on self-confidence I will fail and do everytime. It's when I am called my God to do something and I realize man there is no way I am fit to do this and I run to Him through prayer and dependence and say, "God I need you", that I find strength and the ability to do what He calls me to do. How often do I run into something without praying first, without seeking God's wisdom and without leaning on His strength. It is obvious from scripture that I cannot do one good thing that is eternal apart from God. Then this verse says I will be blameless (without fault) and free from sin.

Father I need your strength today may you guide and direct my paths today and may I be found follow hard after you. May I run from self-confidence and instead run to you today.
