I have really been challenged lately. Like REALLY challenged. I feel like there is so much going on in my life that I have absolutely no control over. So many things happening that I cant change. So many things to learn from. So much opportunity for trust. I know that I don’t need to have control, and really, it isn’t that part that I am struggling with. It is more that my heart is just so overwhelmed by all that is going on around me.
My tendency when life throws me curve balls, is to go straight to friends…to vent, to cry, to ask for prayer. But lately in conversation, it has occurred to me that this is not always the best approach. Yes. I understand that asking for prayer within the body of Christ and being there for one another are great things. But all too often I find myself running straight there instead of straight to the Lord. So I’m trying this thing… where I don’t run to tell someone when something is wrong. As I write today, I realize that none of you knows what I am speaking of. And that is okay for now. I believe that Christ is sufficient. I believe He is more than I need. I believe He can heal me and comfort me more than any human ever could. I believe those things, so now it is time that I live like it. I have to let Him be my everything.
That being said, I don’t want to write what is currently going on. But I can say that I am once again learning to trust. I do want to leave you with the lyrics of a song that is my cry right now…it speaks simple truth that moves me.
Healer by Hillsong…
You hold my every moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease
I trust in You
I trust in You
I believe You're my Healer
I believe You are all I need
I believe You're my Portion
I believe You're more than enough for me
Jesus You're all I need
Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
You hold my world in Your hands
