Sweet Surrender
I have been thinking again about the importance of trusting the Lord and yet how difficult it can be to relinquish control. I heard a preacher say one time that “worry” is being concerned that your will is not God’s. That is definitely the case with me sometimes but I’ve walked with God long enough to know that His plans for me are always good. The path to that good is not always the one I would choose but the end is always perfect when surrender is present.
Looking back, I feel like this is an area that I have grown in but I know I will continue to be tested. I pray that I will come through each test shining like gold. I want my whining and complaining to disappear as I wholeheartedly embrace whatever God brings into my life. With His help, I know I can. Thank You, Father, for not giving up on me but continually teaching me to trust and obey.
