Let God take the Lead

I know I'm safest when I'm in Your will, and trust Your Word
I know I'm dangerous when I trust myself, my vision blurred
And I ain't got no time to play life's foolish games
Got plenty aims, but do they really Glorify Your name
And it's a shame, the way I want to do these things for You, yeah
Don't even cling to you, take time to sit and glean from You
It seems You were patient in my ignorance
If ignorance is bliss, its 'cause she never heard of this

I could play the background
I could play the background
Cause I know sometimes I get in the way
So won't You take the lead, lead, lead?
So won't You take the lead, lead, lead?
And I could play the background, background
And you could take the lead

I really like what this song is getting out. Feel free to check out the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZosXYJYV8c to listen to the song and see the rest of the lyrics. There are many times where we try to do the things that we want to do and try to take control of our life. God sometimes gets pushed back and we begin to take control and think that we can do things on our own. We need to remember that we need God to help us through everything because He is the one that gave us all the gifts we have and the most important gift was the day of our birth when He gave us a life to live. It is important that we remember that when we start to try and do things on our own that we are going to have our path blurred. There may be plenty of things that we think we want to do or accomplish in our life and we might be on the path of not getting to them so we try to change what is going on in our life so that we can get them, but we have to remember that if we are being strayed away from something that we will be taken to something else because God is taking us there and it is His plan.

In life there are many people that want the attention to be on them, but we should want to play the background. Even the times where we try to go our own path God is working to have us let him take back control of our lives. Even though we may be ignorant of His plan at times and how He is trying to work in our lives, He is always patient and working to get us back on track. We should let God take the lead and we can be the background because He is going to lead us on the path that He wants us to go. He will not lead us astray of the things that He wants for us and wants us to do. If we get off the path He will lead us astray from that, but He is leading us back to the path that He wants us to be on and that He has planned for us. God has a wonderful plan for us and we should be willing to step back from what we think should happen and allow Him to take us allow that plan that He has for us. Each one of us has a special plan and so we may not be taken along exactly like our friends or families, but that is because we are all unique and need a unique plan to take us where God wants us.

Remember to let God take the lead of your life.
