"The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." Proverbs 16:9
How many times have you found yourself asking something along the lines of "Lord, how do I know what your will for me is, if I have no idea what I like and what my passions are?" Currently, I'm finishing up a book by Elisabeth Elliot who addresses this question. She says that we ought to reevaluate and simply tell God that we'll do whatever he says. What if we stopped over analyzing, told God our hearts desires, and let him take control. Think of the amount of peace we would experience, if we stopped trying to control every aspect of our lives. Today, think of something that you've been trying to "make work,"submit it God, and leave it there. Happy Wednesday!
"Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!" Psalm 27:14
