This year, so far, has been a tough one. I can see how God has been teaching me about making my own plans and putting them before His.
I’m a planer. I seek comfort from certainly and building my own vision for the future. While this can be a good thing, it becomes bad when I convince myself that this must be the only way forward. In other words, I convince myself that it is set in stone and there is no room for anything else.
If things don’t go the way I expect it, I used to get so anxious about to the point that I would feel like my foundations would crumble.
God has this exposed this to me recently and while it’s been hard, it has also been liberating at the same time. I can trust that the Lord never fails to deliver, despite what circumstances we may find ourselves in.
This is what happens when we put God in the driving seat and let Him have control over our lives. Ultimately, He knows what’s best for our lives.
