It's been awhile since my last post - but my computer has been down. God has shown me so much about Himself in the past few weeks! As much as we hear "God is in control," and "God knows what is best for you," I don't think we ever grasp the truth of those words until we are put in a situation where all we can do is lean on Him for everything. I don't feel like it's necessary for me to go into detail on the circumstances, but I will say that I've been in several situations recently when all I can do is turn to God for comfort, peace and joy.
Sometimes God cannot reveal himself to us unless we are completely broken before Him. Even though it's painful and it seems like it's not fair at times, it shows how awesome our God is! Over the past few weeks, I've been on the verge breaking but I wasn't letting go and surrendering to my Father. Today, I broke all the way. It was one of the most painful yet amazing experiences of my life. He had to break me before He could heal me and the healing is outweighing the pain of being broken. I'm so excited to see what God has in store for me!
On a lighter note, I'll be out of town this coming weekend! I am leaving on Thursday for a 3 day trip to Saint Louis with Faith's college group. :) I'm so excited! We'll be going to a baseball game, the mall and 6 flags. I'll be posting pictures and video from the trip on facebook for sure :)
