Trust and Obey

If you asked me a couple months ago where I thought I would be today...well, where I am currently is not the answer I would have given! It's funny sometimes to reflect back over a certain period of time and see how God orchestrates people, events, situations, etc. in our lives that all of the sudden make perfect sense! I have been extremely extremely blessed to have been spending the last 10 weeks in a small group with the most amazing women, who have now become some of my closest friends! As we get to know each other more, there is no explanation other than God placed each of us there specifically. He just knew. And He has shown up in a BIG way. I am learning two very difficult lessons...obedience and trust.Obedience is hard because my ways are often not His ways! And sometimes His ways can be painful. Then, I have to trust that by obeying, He WILL take care of me. I may not understand, I may suffer a little, but in letting go and losing my control, I will ultimately be in the center of His plan for my life. Rest in His promises. Constantly be in an attitude of worship.
