Freedom

I keep asking myself what I'm doing with my life. It's such a big question. It's such a silly question. I mean, who even am I to do anything with my life? It's not what I do that matters. It's what God does through me. It's not my life at all, it's His. He is way smarter and way more good and way more awesome that I'll ever be or can even comprehend. He knows what He's doing with my life, even if I don't. I trust in His plan. I know that it's perfect, I know that it's right, and I actually know a lot more about it than I previously thought I knew. His plan is to sanctify me, to make me like Him, to discipline me, to love me, to use me, to teach and guide me. His plan is for me to follow His word, to have a relationship with Him, to love Him and those around me, to pursue him, to give up everything I think I am and everything I think I have to follow Him because it's all already all His to begin with. His plan is for me is to trust in His Son, to trust that the only way I can be with Him is to accept His gift of grace, his Son's sacrifice on the cross. Maybe I don't know specifics of His plan, like how I'll make a living or where I'll go or who I'll meet, but if I knew those things right now, what would I have to look forward to? His plan for me is simply to be His. I'm done wondering what I'm doing with my life. It's too stressful. The Almighty God, the Creator of all things, the Author of life is in control. I'm going to focus on what He's doing in and through my life and in the lives of those around me. I'm His. My life is His.
