chapter 9

i cooked today.

it's one of my favorite things.

i also listened to music while cooking.

definitely one of my favorite things.

one gives me a sense of purpose; the other, peace.

"so, let go my soul and trust in Him.
the waves and wind still know His
name."

i've been listening to this song a lot lately. mostly because it keeps popping up on social media & most recently my playlist.

there's a lot i have to let go of & trust God with. i thought i had surrendered it all to Him last sunday, but lo' and behold, i grabbed hold of it again. and isn't that just like me to do that. to not trust.

tonight i'm surrendering it all to Him...again. however many times it takes, i will surrender my life, thoughts, dreams, desires to Him. because, being in the center of His will is what i want the most. and the first step will always be surrender; the surrender of my own will for His.

it's harder done than said (or something like that).

it's intentional. it's being purposeful and bold, confident & humble before God. being transparent with our hearts. being joyful in the middle of the mess.

He's not ashamed of our mess. He loves us in the middle of it.

i believe that.

so, whatever mess we're carrying, we can take a load off & just give it to Him..

He can take the hits.

He loves us.

period.
