Even though things are pretty much going 'okay' for me for the most part.....still my heart is aching and hurting from fears of surrendering totally to my Heavenly Daddy. Fearing the worst outcome a 'human' mind can expect. Fighting with my 'human' mind, that only things can get better with totally depending on my Heavenly Daddy. Despite whatever is put forth in front of me....He goes with me.
I know what He requires of me. It has been coming for the past year. My little girl is scared to let go in this one particular area of trust.....She fears the pain will be so unberable.
I can hear the struggle in your words, and know that you will get there in due time. One day, you will surrender entirely. In the meantime, be patient and gentle with yourself.
ReplyDeleteThe pain will not be unbearable because Jesus has already bared the brunt of it on the cross. It will hurt but He is right there with you, shielding you from most of the hurt.
ReplyDeleteIn time, you will be able to do this. Praying and praying for you hon.

Our carnal mind will tell us many things Grace, but nothing can compare to the mind of Christ who loves us dearly. He is a warrior who says 'In me you have peace'. Fear does not contain peace, so anything that causes you to fear is not from God.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you
Little girl, the pain of fearing the pain
ReplyDeleteis a whole lot worser
than the pain of the pain
....like ripping of a band-aid slow and agonizing
instead of a quick jerk.
And Jesus will kiss your boo boo
and make it all better
anyway.
You are safe, sweetie.
(gently drying your tears)
love and tender hugs,
Jennifer
Wishing you freedom from that fear, Grace. Hugs to you.
ReplyDeletePraying for you.
ReplyDeleteHi love, surrendering and trusting are not the same. You have your own will, always. It is when we ally with God so that our choices for ourself ally with His for us, we are then one with Him.
ReplyDeleteLove Gail
peace.....
I know I've mentioned this book before....but I have learned that in facing the hard stuff...God always has a plan. Hinds Feet on High Places is one I read over and over again. It's a trust thing. I know that YOU KNOW that our Heavenly Daddy is trustworthy....but as you know well, our being human gets in the way. I will pray that you can move beyond this place...and go where you need to go. He is more than able to conquer this area. Hang on to Him, Grace....He will lead you!
ReplyDeletewishing you an awesome Friday. Hope it's the best. :)
ReplyDeletePraying for you today.
