"Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track." - Proverbs 3:5-6
That's my verse. You know - the one that has echoed through your whole life. It was my confirmation verse as a teenager, the first verse I memorized as a Christian, the verse that just seems to echo everywhere I go. I LOVE The Message translation of this verse. The reminder...don't try to figure out everything on your own.
Yish.
I am a control freak and I tend to like to know everything, do everything, have everything in my control. God likes to challenge me in this way. I had some cool things that I was going to get to do this week. Things I really, really wanted to do (cough, Canada Winter Games, cough)...that I had to withdraw from. I have some things coming up in April that I really, REALLY want to do...but don't think I'll be able to pull off. Because of this little wrench God has thrown into my life lately. Something 100% out of my control. Something I literally can't figure out, fix, or do anything about. Something that could be life changing, but really truly hopefully isn't.
So once more God echoes "trust Me" into my life. I know it's vague. It's that way on purpose. But if you could open your heart and send some prayers to Jesus for me...it'd be much appreciated. Because sometimes it's hard to trust...sometimes it's hard to remember that He's everywhere. Sometimes I just want to run away. Sometimes I don't want to trust.
But He just keeps on reminding me to trust him from the bottom of my heart. It's a work in progress. I'll take all the prayers I can get <3
