Giving Problems to God without Meddling

Wow! How many times do we "give" our problems to God only to snatch them back again? Like a child brings a toy to a parent to be fixed, so we take our problems to God. Then we "forget" that HE has the power to handle the problems and take them back upon ourselves. ("Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." Psalm 55:22 KJV and "Casting all your care upon him: for he careth for you." 1 Peter 5:7 KJV)

God doesn't need us to "meddle" with His Plan. He promises to work with what we give Him. Sometimes that isn't much because we end up taking matters into our own hands without waiting upon the LORD. ("But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint."  Isaiah 40:31 KJV)

I pray that I won't meddle...
