These last couple weeks have been completely life changing.
I am in a beautiful country with amazing girls and God is rocking my world.
I've been learning a lot about God and who I am in Him.
The most prevalent thing I'm learning is that I am not in charge of life.
I find myself planning even more now that I'm about to graduate from college. It is almost time for me to become a real adult. I find myself planning what this next phase of my life is going to look like. When in reality the plans He has for my life are greater than anything I could every imagine.
I'm at a place where I need to surrender my future to him and ask him to come and lead me. I cannot face this next part of my life if he is not leading me in every possible way.
This is not easy at times and I still find myself having the next 5 years of my life planned out.
Whenever I am too caught up in my future He always has a way of showing me to trust him. Often times he does through a verse in the bible or a devotional I'm reading.
The other day I was talking to some girls about my "5 year plan." Of course having every detail figured out. The next day I pick up Jesus Calling, the first line of the devotional says:
Rest in me, my child. Give your mind a break from planning and trying to anticipate what will happen.
He always has a way of reminding me he is in control.
This song has been the prayer for my life.
If you lead me Lord, I will follow
Where you lead me Lord I will go
Come and heal me Lord, I will follow
Where you lead me Lord I will go
Lead me Lord three simple words with a big impact.
In his heart a man plans his course, but The Lord determines his steps.
Proverbs 16:9
