Do you ever feel like your heart is being pulled in different directions, but your mind can't decide which one to follow? That's how I feel now. I've always been one to plan out everything I do. I guess I'm just a planner with a lot of dreams, when something gets in the way or those dreams seem to be shut down, I just kinda lose it. I'm working on that, but it's a long and difficult process. God has been revealing some things to me lately, and I just don't know what to think. He's got me so confused right now. I've been going through a lot of changes in my life lately, and now I just can't figure out what it is he wants me to do. It's frustrating at times, but I have to believe that he has everything in control. I know he's not putting me through this rough spot in my life for no reason. I know he has an exact purpose for this, and it's okay if I don't know that purpose right now. It's just hard. Life is hard. For what feels like one moment, I was on top of the world. Life was perfect and everything seemed to be going my way. But then it all came crashing down, and left me with a broken heart. But God is starting to restore that broken place in me. One of my biggest problems is that I want to take control and fix things myself. I'm afraid to trust someone else because they might not do it like I want it. But I'm trusting God with my heart. I don't even know where to begin to pick up the pieces, but he does. He always does. There is no one else I would trust my heart with than him. Even though times can be tough, my life is truly beautiful. And he is the one I have to thank. He blessed me with this life and I am forever grateful. Sometimes you have to weather out the storm to experience the sun shine. So I will stand firm and praise him with everything I have. And I hope if anyone reading this who is experiencing a tough time will stand firm, too. My message is to not give up hope. God knows what he's doing, and everything happens for a reason. But if you trust in God and allow him to lead the way, then he will take care of everything. My sacrifice is to forget what I had planned and let God show me his plan for my life. So I ask, what is your sacrifice? What are you willing to give up for God? God wouldn't ask you to give something up if he didn't already have something bigger and better planned for you. So trust in him and you can never go wrong. If your heart aligns with God, then follow your heart and he will lead the way. I know this is all jumbled up, but I just have a lot on my mind tonight and this isn't even half of it. But this all I will write for now, and I just pray that you will allow God to work in your life to whoever is reading this. He is forever faithful and will never do you wrong.
"Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass... it's about learning how to dance in the rain."
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." -Jeremiah 29:11
