How is it that something that felt, and still feels SO right - go wrong?
I was reminded last night that God has a plan and a purpose for EVERYTHING and that His hand is in EVERYTHING. I need to surrender it to Him......can I surrender it to Him with my input on how a situation should go? I know that sounds silly, but that's how I feel. "Um, excuse me God, but, well, I was wondering, if I hand this situation over to you, can it turn out like....." Though, deep down, I know that He is God, and He will do whatever He wants to! I will rest in that truth. I will rest in the truth that God's plan is Perfect. That God is Perfect. That His love for me doesn't change because of situations or my lack of trust. I will rest in the fact that God's will will be done and in His perfect timing none-the-less! A couple quotes that were shown to me......
Vindication does not come from self-defensive arguments; it stems from integrity (Ps. 26:1). It requires that I allow God to examine my mind and heart (v.2) and that I walk in His truth (v.3). This, of course, requires patient waiting (25:21).
When we call on God, He will help us—but in His perfect time and in His perfect way
When we call on God, He will help us—but in His perfect time and in His perfect way
I prayed: the answer long deferred brought not the thing I sought;He answered better than my plea,Yes, better than my thought. —Anon.
The purpose of prayer is not to get what we want, but to become what God wants.
