Reckless Abandon

In the midst of our circumstances, it’s so easy to lose sight of the bigger picture. It’s easy to forget that God has the best planned for us.

Self-sufficiency.

It’s in our nature to want to be able to control things. Although we are able to, in some capacity and aspects of our lives, it is impossible to do so in all. Accidents happen. Change occurs. To say that we have complete authority over every single detail of our lives is to be ignorant. We need to keep in mind that not everything will go our way. We must remember that, though we encounter hardships and experience suffering, God has total control. Everything happens for a reason. Through our tears and through our heartaches, God is slowly unraveling His plans for us. All we have to do is trust in Him and, with reckless abandon, let Him.

(Genesis 45:4-8)
