God says, "I make known the end from the beginning...My purpose will stand." Isaiah 46:10

"You are going to succeed because God has already determined your destiny.  Before God establishes the procedure, He decides the purpose.  When a builder is confused he refers back to the blueprint and checks with the architect.  God is the architect and builder of your life.  He never gets confused about what He's planned or how it's to be built.  When He builds something, it's built for maximum efficiency and optimal performance.  We think, 'Lord, why are You holding me back while others get to go forward? Why is it taking so long for my breakthrough to come?'  God responds, 'What does the blueprint say?' God is building a solid foundation under you so that you'll be able to handle the pressures that accompany His blessing, and go through the storms of life without being moved or shaken.  Anything that's made well is made slowly.  Anything that's worth having is worth fighting for." (from The Word for You Today devotional)

Be my everything, Lord... when I am tired, be my everything!  When I am relieved, be my everything!  When I am sad, be my everything!  When I am surprised, be my everything!  When I am disappointed, be my everything!  When I am excited, be my everything!  When I am wronged, be my everything!  When I am wrong, be my everything!  When I am full, be my everything!  When I am empty, be my everything!

For 9 days, for 7 days, for 65 days, for all my days... be my EVERYTHING!
