I don’t have a right to anything in this world. I don’t have the right to clean water, nutritious food, good company, or proper respect. Everything I have in my life is due entirely to the grace God chose to pour upon me. And because of His grace, I am blessed with family, friends, shelter, etc. 

Knowing this, I cannot say that I have a claim on these things that I say I own. My job, money, education—these are things that I cannot cling to, thinking that I deserve more things due to them. I cannot claim anything in this world as mine. 

I pray that as I wait for God to reveal His path to me, my perception of truth will be aligned to His sole truth, always waiting and surrendering in faith and humility.

May I be like water that knows it cannot cling to anything but just move where I am poured onto.
