Run into Loving Arms!

-
God has been teaching me a ton lately... I have been having some pretty weird times lately with: Relationships, moving, trying to figure out college stuff, trying to find a job, and really trying to figure out what God wants me to do with my future.
So to be quite frank, it has been quite burdening and overwhelming for me at times.

To be honest, I tried taking matters into my own hands. I tried working out relationships with my own strength, I tried doing things all on my own.
I started failing at all these aspects of trying to make things perfect in my life... But I continued to fall on my face doing it.
I know it sounds weird and that I should have realized after several times of falling.... But it has taken a lot for me to realize and own up to knowing that I can't do it on my own.
Some things I have been learning the last few days about all of this are:

  1. I need to trust the Lord with my future, my relationships, and really EVERYTHING!
  2. I need to not take control of every situation.
  3. I need to be patient.
  4. I need to give my burdens to the Lord. 
  5. I need to fall more in love with Christ daily and give Him my ALL! 
  6. I need to die to myself and live for Christ. 
  7. I need to find rest in Him. 
  8. I need to run into His arms for comfort, love, joy, and peace.
I have been listening to the song below so much! It has been a huge encouragement to me. 


I write all of this because I want to be an encouragement to those who may going through things similar. 

Don't forget: God is for You! Run to Him through your pain/confusion/hurt/etc. Because He cares for you and loves you so much more than you know.

It's not Impossible

A few weeks ago I was supposed to find out my second treatment for my Kidney Disease that I have. After many Dr. appointments and continually waiting... I was starting to get really frustrated. Today, I started losing hope and I was getting really frustrated that I have been put on one of my treatments and not the other one that is supposed to work with the first treatment. I was getting down and discouraged for not having answers. Then I was continually reminded of a sermon that I listened to a month or two ago from one of my Pastor's. He was talking about how God only gives us the details that we need right now. If we knew everything that God had planned, then we would not want to go on this long journey... So we need to continually thank God for the details He has only provided for now.  As I was continuing through my day working and doing homework... I became really discouraged again. I reached out to my birth brother from Oklahoma and a few friends to ask for prayer for pat...

This song called, Broken is extremely encouraging and has been a huge encouragement to me. The lyrics are extremely powerful. Honestly this song is exactly how I feel currently. Literally I feel like I am barely holding on... But I keep reminding myself that God has a purpose for me even if I don't see it right now...  I just need to keep remembering that God has some sort of plan, even if I don't feel that way.
