that just seem to speak to you in a private way that no one else can really understand?
My friend Robin and I have been talking a lot about different circumstances in our lives and how sometimes it is hard to trust and allow someone else to be in control when we think we know and understand what is best for our lives. She has been a great inspiration to me and has really helped me continue to seek and trust even when I want to give in.
Just recently, a friend sent her a link to a song that talks about waiting patiently and trusting that God is in control and truly knows the path of our lives. Being that Robin and her husband Bryan are missionaries in Costa Rica, the song is in Spanish but it spoke to me none-the-less (it helped having the translation... my spanish is a bit rusty since college )
I have always loved Jeremiah 29:11 and Psalm 139:13-16 and throughout this past crazy year,those have been verses to cling to and remind me of His control. It is so tough for me to let someone else hold the reigns for I like to take things into my own hands to insure a planned outcome, but I am beginning to realize that that isn't what God is asking of me. Yes, I can continue to run along on my own, but he is asking me to humble myself and trust... and right now, I am trying to learn how.
