Ever think that you need something else to satisfy you even after God has already given you all you need. Raise a hand if that’s you. My hand is all the way lifted high because I know that’s me. I do this all the time. This week , he gave me two very different scenarios. One where I felt completely at peace and full of joy. Another where I felt so bad that I couldn’t eat all day. Which situation would you rather be in? I realize now that I have everything I need in Jesus. He has set me free. He has given me everything I need and will never bring me to a place where I feel unloved , unwanted, and not needed. His love is peace. His love brings joy and love. It never makes you feel alone. It never makes you feel less than. It always makes you feel whole, complete, loved. I realize I already have someone who loves me. Love them back. Love those who never treat you as less than but love you no matter what.

You know that feeling when it feels like nothing makes sense. You wake up, do the same routine but it all starts to get mundane. You are looking for change when you have so much to do already. There are tasks and dreams God gives so we have a plan to follow. It is much easier to surrender to His will and stop trying to fight it.

Now that you have seen what God can do, move forward. Move forward knowing that He has you covered. Know that he will never leave you astray. He always kept you safe in the middle of the storm and has always held your hand as you walked through the fire. You’ve made mistakes. You’ve been disobedient. You’ve been disciplined in more ways than you can name. God was building your character the whole time. He was teaching you who you need to be. More like Him. More like His son, Jesus. Now it’s time to not look back any longer. Move forward knowing that all things will work out for your good according to God’s plan. It is going to be fulfilled anyways so you might as well surrender now and let Him have His way. You will save many years of heartache, pain, and discipline.

Move forward.
