Chosen Grace

For the last month, I’d been struggling with something that is crucial on my Christian walk. That is surrendering. 

As I’ve stated before in a previous blog post, Releasing Control and Learing To Trust, I like to have complete control. This means I love to plan out how every step of my life is going to go.

But lately , God has been reminding me that I can’t handle everything that is thrown my way. At least not by myself anyway. He also informed me if this: I hadn’t surrendered to God like I claim to have done.

Upon God sitting this in my spirit– a lot of things started to make more sense:

• Projects were coming together
• I couldn’t write without having issues
• And it seemed like I couldn’t even pray

To be honest- I believe I was starting to sink like Peter.

As I gave this to God- He began to show me that I must surrender. And so I did.

It felt good. Like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I wake up now and can exhale fully without feeling as though Im burdened. God has taken the weight. I now know that I’m free. He took what I couldn’t handle and He’s currently molding it as we speak…..or as I write and you read. 

Surrendering is hard work, no doubt. But once you do, everything will be fine like wine. 

With love,
