“What is it you grip so tight? Loosen your fingers let go and remember I am God. I hold all things in my hand. I work all things together for my good and yours. Let go and trust me. Trust that my ways are good. My word is true. I will not harm you. All the days of your life I am with you.” – God

Everything God has shown me lately is so different yet perfectly fits together. As I try to cling to my control it is apparent I have none. God wants us to surrender. And whatever that looks like for you may be different to the person next to you. I feel God is wanting us to let go of our biggest desires. Our deepest fears. He wants to be the one to heal our hurt. He wants to be the desire of our hearts. He has been telling me to surrender who I think I should be and just “be.” This world screams in our face and pulls us in so many directions. It is trying to distract us and deceive us from being everything except who and what God created us to be.

I know I tend to come to different situations or people set to “perform.” I think if we’re honest we all do this to an extent. We try to be “perfect” in order to be approved, accepted, or loved. We only show part or maybe a version of ourselves that we feel is more worthy to others. We try to pretend we are not flawed because everything in this world tells us our imperfections and flaws make us unworthy. Well God says the opposite. He finds our flaws and imperfections perfect. God wants you to surrender all those lies. Something He has really pressed into me is to just “be.” I don’t need to try because being me is enough. As corny as it sounds He created me for it! He created you to be you! There is no one else in this world that could be a better you.

God wants us to have peace. Resting in who He created us to be and what He has called us to do. Give up full control. Allow yourself to be real and vulnerable. He calls to the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Surrender and you will find full joy ❤

Remember You are Fearfully Made
