Ah, so much easier said than done. As it always is.
"God is waiting for you to say and believe that I need Him more than I need my dreams to happen.
His grace is more than enough to not only heal a broken heart but fill it overflowing.
He is waiting for me to realize have that dreams on my list would not make me
feel more fulfilled than picking up my cross to follow Him."
I'm a woman, let's be real…I desire to be a wife and a mother. There BAM it's written. I know that the majority of women feel this way if they aren't married, especially if they are single and about to graduate and enter the real world…alone. It's terrifying to be honest. But, we can't anchor our identity in something smaller than Jesus. I know for myself it's something that has enslaved me. Who doesn't want to be loved and cherished and with a man of God who is leading you and serving in ministry alongside of you? I mean, it's something I feel that God has created me for.It's when I let that desire become so much stronger than anything else that it isn't good. I, as a woman of God, need to be immersed in the ministry and service He has called me to at THIS moment.
Our identity, security, purpose and meaning must be found in Christ, the One who has already chosen and accepted you.
There, i'm done ranting. So, things are stressful and don't always work out as hoped/planned/expected…but that doesn't mean that GOD is not BIG enough, STRONG enough, or WORTHY enough.
Because Jesus has won I am free to fail,
because Jesus is strong I am free to be weak,
because Jesus is someone, I am free to be no one.
"Oh God, let your grace illuminate the heart in me, you're brining me to life,
and i'm finding who I am in you. You're changing me inside
and i'm finding who I am in you, who I am in you."
