Unexpected Upgrades

It's funny how sometimes you don't know how little you knew until you take a look back. 
Never to regret, God has too much grace for that. 
No, just to absorb the immense greatness of God's power and timing. 
You can be trying your absolute hardest in life to hold things together yet they never seem to work out how you want them to. 

Do you notice the mistakes in that sentence?
YOUR absolute hardest, how YOU want them to.
They are not working out for a reason.
God wants us to hand over the reigns to Him, He wants us to stop fighting Him tooth and nail how to live our lives and just let Him.

Let Him take over and take control.
He already and always is in absolute control so why not make it easier.
If you find it hard to do this and are having trouble but want to, ask God to come in and change your life.
You will be surprised at how quickly God rips out your "stuffing-the-wrong-puzzle-pieces-into-the-puzzle-of-life" foundation and starts moving things around according to His plan.

I won't lie and say this part isn't at times scary and confusing but I can promise you the more you place your trust in God the easier things seem.
Pretty soon the confusion and dark clouds of being "unsure" will part and you will see clearly why the Lord had you trust Him.
The light He reveals is amazing and worth all the trials set in your path.
Keep pushing forward and gaining strength.
Strength to take on the next trial head on.
Walk down the road of trials and troubles, this life on earth, with your head held high towards the Lord, because you know whats at the end of the road.
Life.

"I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world."
                                                                                             -John 16:33
