I hope you are encouraged to
surrender everything to God, even what you never thought you could give up. ~
Jeremy Camp
Throughout life we will be hit with trials and tribulations.
Through these difficult moments we may experience many feelings. Feelings of
disappointment, failure, discouragement, among many other feelings. Sometimes
it may feel as if the life has been sucked right out of you. It is during these times we must seek God to
see us through. I must admit, at times, that it’s easier said than done. You
have all of these emotions flowing. You don’t know if you should take a right
or left, then maybe a left or right.
Sigh, so many things flowing through your mind. Should I do
this, or maybe I should do that.
When we are met with uncertainty in life, there is only one
thing to do, give it to God. It is clear to see that, with all of the mumble
and jumble going in your mind, clarity is nowhere in sight. You don’t know if you should look at things
in the natural or supernatural.
Looking at things in the natural will only leave you
disappointed. No hope. Discouraged and
feeling hopeless in your situation. When we don’t have a relationship with God,
these feelings creep in so easily. Even if you have a close relationship with
God, you still may experience these feelings. Sometimes, we all grow weary in
our faith. We are human.
However, the blessing of it all is that when we look at things
in the supernatural, we see hope.
When we choose to look at things in the supernatural, we are
forced to see the positive. Be hopeful and encouraged in God’s world. We know
that with God, all things are possible. We learn, that we are not in this walk
alone. That, God is right by our side through it all.
Surrendering to God during this time offers you peace. It gives
you the chance of lifting the heavy burden that’s weighing you down. I’ve been
carrying around this heavy burden for so long that it is literally beginning to
weigh me down emotionally, mentally, and physically. My legs feel so weak at
times. Like, the walk gets harder and harder. Although I know, I must surrender
it to God, it is hard to do.
At this point in my life, I can only be real with you. It is
not an easy task for me to do. Not, because I don’t believe in God, only
because, it hits so close to home. When something hits closer to home,
literally sits in your lap, it’s harder to do.
Do you agree?
This is why I choose to write this post. To help me write
myself through it. To help me release this burden that has been weighing me
down. To finally, give it to God. To physically say, God, I can’t do this
without you! I cannot do this any longer. I know my situation is better in your
hands and not mine. I cannot do this without you. I cannot take care or fix
this matter. The battle is no longer mind but yours.
Do not be anxious about anything,
but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your
requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all
understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7
Lord, on this day, 3/29/17 I know longer want to hold onto
this burden, help me to release this matter and not take it back, (as we so
often do.) Help me to lean on you when I grow weary and feel don’t’ feel like I
can make it. Lord, although I know it’s better in your hands, and help me to accept
your way and your will.
Do not be conformed to this
world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may
discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Romans 12:2
Please, pray for me as I will pray for you, as you relinquish
your burdens to God.
Let’s Chat,
Are you holding on to burdens that you know need to be given
to God?
