Such a Beautiful Surrender

"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart."
Psalms 37:4

It's crazy how truly mysterious God is. You can be a Christian your whole life, and still be amazed at His awesomeness. You can convince yourself that you know it all and yet we really know nothing. Oh how He loves us and cares about every detail of our lives. If only we could truly grasp how wide, long, high, and deep His love is for us. Everything, all the things of this Earth, would fade away.

I know that since we parted ways in May, the things of this Earth have hit us hard!!! Some with heartache, some with school, some with family, and some with economic hardships. But I just wanted to remind you of His Sovereignty. Our God is still the same God who spoke to you in your dreams. The same God who got you through senior paper. The same God who took you places you could've never imagined. The same God who held you in His arms those nights you cried "why God, why." The same God who showed you that you are His nurse and nobody else's. He is the God who was, and is, and is to come.

Remember my friends where you came from, where you are now, and where you are going is all because of His love for you.

"Surrender has somehow become so beautiful" -Mutemath

I love you,

  1. Jovy, this is so beautiful! Thank you for the reminder! It's crazy b/c I scrolled down an saw the last post from me on Patience (clearly when I was becoming impatient about finding a job) and now that I have one, it's like I almost forgot about that season; I don't even read my Bible as much- yes I am busy, but not too busy to give God 10 minutes of my day. It's funny how we go to Him and cry out to Him in times of need but don't have time to go to Him and worship Him in times of praise...I just love that quote, Jovy, b/c when u find urself in a place where you NEED God, that surrender IS Beautiful b/c u come to a beautiful place of communion and fellowship with Him, ur Heavenly Father and NOTHING can beat that! Nothing in this world can ever be as satisfying. *siigh* I know i'm just rambling right now but your post reminded me of where I was just a month ago and how I always want to be in a state of surrender to Him, and I always want to be reminded of the purpose in which He has sent me- it's a beautiful place to be.
    Thanks Love, I appreciate this post Mucho! :)
