Last week I shared about my faith home and that I have lived here for five years.
This week also marks another anniversary. Five years of consistently writing to God.
I remember going to God with a very specific request. I might have even told Him how to answer my request if I’m not mistaken. Lol. But, I asked for something even greater than that. This time, I asked God to fully lead in the situation.
You see, I’m really good at making my decisions and then expecting God to go along with the program. But this time, I knew I wanted it to be different.
What’s the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing over and over, but expecting a different result. I was tired of doing the same thing time and again, but looking for a different result. This time I wanted God to be in complete control.
Can I tell you how difficult and enjoyable the process has been at the same time? There have been times (too many to count), that I’ve tried to take back the control that I’ve given my Father. But, what I’m experiencing now is a direct result of finally trusting God enough to lead my life.
Will you trust Him to lead?
I can promise you one thing: it won’t be easy, but it will be worth it.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank you that you know everything from the beginning of time. Help me to trust you that you know all things, and that you do all things well. Strengthen my faith and trust in you when I feel like I can’t go on and I want to take back the reigns from you. Father, you alone are worthy to lead. Help me to trust that.
