Instead

Isaiah 8; Colossians 3

I do not spend much time worrying about the conspiracies of men. Of course they conspire to sin. They are sinners, and until God saves us and converts us, we will sin without conscience or repentance.

I am not afraid of the threats of corruption, nor am I troubled. Instead, I keep my eyes on you, Father. I hallow you. You, Lord God, are the one I fear and the one I spend my concern on.

You are a sanctuary for me. You are a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense to those who will not believe. To those who plot evil you are a trap and a snare. They will stumble and fall and be broken and snared in their evil plots.

I am filled and led by your Holy Spirit, Father. I am your disciple. I wait upon you. My hope is in you, Lord Jesus. I’m hidden in you with all your other brothers and sisters.
