Depending

I have been recently thinking more and more about who I am in Christ and I’ve noticed that I am to dependent on myself to get things done. This isn’t the way that I should be. I have always heard that you are to go to God with all of your needs and desires, but it is so much more than that. I’m supposed to really GO to Him. If I pray to God and give Him all that I have, I need to actually do that and not just say it. Perfection is something that I have always striven for, but not anymore. I now know that under Christ, nothing is perfect, nor can it ever be. I will always be the best I can be, but that is all.

For too long now I’ve been focused on being the best that there ever was just on my own strength and will power. However, I can’t continue living life this way. I need to daily die to myself and realize that there is a God who created me just the way He wanted me and that He is so much bigger than me. If I focus on myself, nothing will be worth it…with God, it’s more than worth it!

I know that I haven’t blogged in a super long time, and I’m honestly not sure how many people even read my blogs, but I hope that this story helps those who have been struggling with literally giving everything to our Heavenly Father and not just saying they will. When we daily surrender, it’s like we are inviting God in to do what He was always standing right beside us waiting to do. That’s awesome and it really makes me smile

Spread the blessings!
