This Made Sense in My Head
It's funny how I can get so worried about the future and let my fear of the unknown occupy my thoughts. I somehow think that I must do something or pray a specific prayer in order to know God's plan for my life. Surrender is such a simple word, but so hard to do. It's easier said than done. I think our sinful nature holds on to what little control we think we might have over our lives and we can't fully surrender to God, we can't really seek Him wholeheartedly. Not on our own at least. So we can't surrender our entire lives over to Christ without recognizing our incompetence, and in turn surrendering our problem of surrendering. God's plan is going to happen no matter what we do or how much we freak out. It has nothing to do with us and everything to do with His glory. I waste so much time agonizing over choices I have to make in life, trying to figure out God's plan. But if I just follow Him with no questions asked, I'll see His plan begin to play out right before my eyes over a conversation in a Starbucks down the street from my house.
