Can't Carry a Tune
BY DENISE DEMONIA

I Chronicles 16:11 Seek the Lord and His strength, seek His face continually.

Have you ever heard anyone say," I couldn't even carry a tune in a bucket!" Well, musical ability is forte'. Instead of carrying a tune in regards to this devotion, I think I will try to "be-in tune." In tune with God, that is.

Some people are just born planners. They plan meals, parties, vacations, and they have their schedules and "to do" lists forever with them. I happen to be one of those people, so as some of you know, flexibility in a schedule is difficult for me.

I used to plan my schedule without praying about it. I would just get organized- such as my work schedule, attending a Church/Bible Study, attending board meetings, working at the house, etc etc., and think that was what God would have me do. It wasn’t very often that I would pray before I made these decisions; I just asked Him to bless the ones I had made!

Now I always try to seek the Lord’s council first. Asking Him for some long range plans, perhaps; some visions He would give me, and some everyday opportunities in my life. Recently a friend told me that she prayed each day that she would be a blessing to someone. Can you imagine what life would be if we ALL adopted that prayer, knowing it to be the will of God. How satisfying it would be to know God has used you each day to bless someone else!

Relaxing in the arms of God and allowing Him to make the plans is a good place for me to reside. He will let me know what and where to do His will, but only when I turn over the reins of control to Him.

So, when you think of being in tune....it doesn't necessarily have to be in regards to a song or singing! Give God control of your life and see what a difference it will make!
See what kind of song you can sing with him beside you!!

I thank you for your support in my Daily Devotion ministry!
