“Come to me. In the stillness. In the silence. Lay your heart down at the foot of the cross. Surrender yourself. Your thoughts, your desires. your will. Give them to me. I will bring what you desire and more.” – God
I’ve been struggling with giving some things to God lately. My heart longs for love and I’ve struggled with hanging onto the toxic in hopes I can make it work in my own will. I feel like we all do this. But we can’t let fear over take our hearts or cloud us from our purpose.
God reminded me to surrender my will and my ways to Him. What He has for me is so much better. I think as humans we hate the unknown. We want to know there’s a plan B – a safety net in case it doesn’t really work out. That someone will be there no matter what to catch us if we fall. But we can trust if God promised it then He will make it happen. Things may not always manifest in the way we dreamed but Gods way is so much better. He sees what we don’t see. He accounts for the detours and mistakes we make.
The other week I was praying about some things trying to find clarity on a decision. God told me either option would be fine – but not His best. I would be settling. What He told me was “You can choose either one but it would be settling. And don’t you want my best for you?” God gives you the option to choose what to do – we have free will. But don’t we want the best? His promise is so much more than we could ever imagine. Out of fear I’ve hovered over this safety net. Not taking a step out trusting God to provide what He has promised.
In order to receive our big ask we need to show up with even bigger faith. God always shows up to provide. Nothing can take away what He has promised to you. Nothing will separate what He has brought together. Sometimes you need to risk it all to see He’s the one right there waiting to catch you when you fall.
Remember You Are Fearfully Made
