It's always easy to be okay with God's will when His timing lines up with yours. But what about when all seems to be lost? Am I going to fall -like some helpless child or am I going to hold strong-- on the shoulders of my Savior?
It's easy to praise God when your happy. I'm learning, our reliance on Him, is critical for life here on earth. We are nothing. He is something. We are incapable..of living, getting a good job, dating, anything. If our view of God is small, what's gong to happen when we figure out we can't "live" without Him. Relying on God is key for surviving this world. We are nothing, He is everything. As a tree's roots give it strength and nutrients to grow, surely we must be rooted in Christ. We must trust in Him, we have no clue what to expect in our life's. My prayer is that my view of God would be big and I would see myself as very very very very small.
