Trusting in God’s Guidance: A Journey of Surrender and Faith

Alone, without God’s wisdom and knowledge, I struggle with hard things, especially if I try to figure things out for myself. When I rely on my wisdom and strength, I fail and come short because my carnal mind doesn’t understand God’s ways. Therefore, it can’t figure out God’s plan.

As my daddy preached, he said, “If you know what to do and how to do it, then you’re not following the Lord.” That helped immensely because I didn’t know how to do this work. I’ve struggled so much in not knowing. My mind is still trying to figure out how to write for the Lord, but I’m so thankful that the power is in not knowing but following the nudges of my heart.

I’ve wasted a lot of time trying to figure it all out. When all I needed to do was spend more time with the Lord. If I want to be the person He created me to be, then I need to spend more time with Him and let Him mold me. There is absolutely no substitution for His spirit and guidance.

When I let God use me and sincerely desire to follow Him, He makes even the hard things easier. I think this is because He knows I rely on Him for everything. I’m not trying to figure it out or do the work alone, but I trust Him to come through right on time to give me what I need.

Surrendering it all to Him is such a beautiful process. It reminds me of when I got saved. I didn’t know how to get saved. All I could do was cry out to God. And that’s all I needed to do. God did the rest.

I feel unworthy of God’s blessings, even though He’s been so good to me. But I know my worth is not determined by who I am but by who God is. I am part of the royal bloodline, and I am so thankful to be His child.
